I had a dream. I won't tell you only because then that would ruin the entire story lol but time for the G quests in the eyes of a sad mother. Right now, I'm almost done wtih G3 so this story is going to stop at G3 unless G4 is workable. Because I believe that G4 is going to be in Iria, which I will have to think about writing. Iria is a pretty big place! But anyways, if you want to be in the story, just say something :3 I'm sure there's 1000 ways I could add someone.

I was coming back from a hard day's work at the church.

I was carrying a box that Mother Endelyon had found. Inside was stuff the church had given me, hoping that my children would use it. Father Meven teased about my children using the items to cause more mayhem in the otherwise quiet Tir Chonaill.

That was when I ran into Duncan

He was just standing in front of his house, as always, when he spotted me.

"Diya? Is that you?" Not a lot of people have violet hair.

"Hi Duncan, what are you up to?" I called out.

"Want to come inside for a bit? That box looks heavy." He laughed before walking his humble abode

I'm strong enough to carry a box on my own, but I accept his offer. He has the cutest but weirdest cat.

"Please Take a seat."

His house appears to have only one chair, a rocker. But he has a hidden chair near the staircase, it's impossible to see unless you've been there a lot. I open it up, since it's a foldable chair, and sit right next to him, setting the box down beside me.

"Thanks. My feet are tired from running around town all day."

"Haha. Endelyon is working you hard, eh?"

"I can't complain, considering how she gives me some blessings. My kids can run through a pair of armor as if it's made out of cob webs."

We both laugh over a cup of tea, that he'd made in his fireplace.

Duncan is a nice but scary old man. I was the first person I met in this town and he has always been a step ahead of everyone. Then again, when you get to his age, there's not a lot that you don't know. Tehehe.

"Diya?"

I snap back into attention, "What?"

He chuckled at me, "Do you always answer a question with another question?"

"I don't know, do you?" I smiled behind my mug.

"The reason why I called your name, I hope you don't get angry, is that I'm sure you remember before…you-know-what, he was working on something. Do you know that he was asked to find an earring?"

I roll my eyes. How could I forget? I joked about it for a week, telling him that I lost my earrings and only a warrior like him could find it. I hope he knew that I was only teasing. I snap out of my thoughts and reply to the question with a nod.

"On that job, he must have realized or saw something. He spoke to me about someone name Tarlach, do you know him?"

"I told the story of the Three Warriors to all my kids, Aydub has especially taken to it. Speaking of which, he should be coming home now with the kids."

Speak of the devil, suddenly some of my kids run in.

The youngest is my daughter Starlin, and behind her was Yukisnowchan, she is the daughter with the most boy issues but she is much like me.

They are both learning from Lassar, the school's magic teacher. Though Yukisnowchan is about to advance to Stewart while Starlin has a while to go. Not that I mind, they're both very helpful around the house.

The other two are Ubamiero, my daughter who is very independent, along with her brother Yoyoking. They live with me but they are legal ages, they are mostly adventures and already have jobs but they go to school, they learn from Ranald, the combat teacher. They watch over the younger kids.

"Mom! Caitin said you were in here" shouted Starlin.

"I've kept you too long, haven't I?" laughed Duncan as he stood up, Star and Yuki ran over and gave him a hug. Uba and Yo simply waved.

We said goodbye, Yo carried the box as I listened to Star and Yuki tell me about their school day and how they have homework. We walked all the way home, only because the local gate lead to Dugald Aisle area.

We enter the house, from the outside it looks small. But when I had my third child, we knew we had to expand. My husband did all the work, I just sat around being pregnate and watched the kids so they didn't bother him. Now we have nine kids…

…Crazy, isn't it?

From age wise, youngest is Star who's ten. Next is Yuki who is eleven, then comes Ckika who is fourteen. Before her was Sularin, she's fifteen and so are Aydub and Koriko, both are boys, at least they are now. Before them was Uba who is eighteen, then Yoyo who is eighteen and my oldest is Dotxhack but we call him Dotty, he's also eighteen.

Pretty crazy, right? Everyone is always amazed that I'm not a balloon but its simple. I didn't give birth to all of them.

Ckika was from my husband's last marriage, Ay and Kori were adopted along with Sularin. Then we adopted Uba and Yoyo when they were already older, and lastly Dotty is my son because I adopted him before I met my husband.

So I only gave birth to Star and Yuki, the youngest.

So if you think I'm some walking balloon who pops out kids, you're wrong! So stop thinking that. Now where was I? I forgot, well simply put, our house is like a rabbit hole. Three levels underground and two above.

I sat in at the table while the four searched through the box. Duncan's words still bothered me slightly.

Why would he tell me about my husband's job? Does he know something I don't? Is he trying to tell me? Or is it just an old man baffiling, trying to help me cope.

It has been three month, I'm not over it but as far as everyone else knows, I am perfectly right as rain again. I use to check in with Dily almost every day, then every week and now I see her only if I have a wound. Everyone use to talk to me, even my older kids.

It was sweet but after a month, it was just annoying. I had to stop it.

"Tarlach?" I mumbled, wondering why my husband was looking for this guy. According to legend, all the warriors are dead.

"What mother?"

"Ay! You're all back."

All of my kids were home, and now for the short information overview again.

Because honestly, I forget myself where my kids go. I'm not a bad mother, I just have too many kids.

Sularin goes to school for Stewart, Ay is studying under Craig, Kori works for Ailionoa since she is so great at fashion. Ckika studies under Aranwen, the next level of combat and Dot works for a family friend, Aodhan, guarding the castle and that's it.

"Yeah, we just walked in. What about Tarlach?" Ay asked again as he gave me a hug.

"Nothing, I was talking to Duncan earlier and he said that your father asked about Tarlach. I just find it strange."

Aw damn it. I said it out loud.

"Dad? What about dad?" Kori chimed in.

"I-I was talking to Duncan…and he said something." I spitted out again, I felt the worried eyes of my older children.

"Mom?"

"I'm fine. I don't need you to worry about me. Go wash up and get ready, I want homework done, swords and wands polish and everyone bathed before bed time."

I turned my back to them and went to make dinner. Everyone did as told, Dot told me that Aodhan said hello which Aodhan always told him to relay.

The rest of the night was uneventful, thankfully.

Minus when Star started throwing her mash potatoes at Kori who then threw her corn and this started another food fight, which they all cleaned before bed.

Thats all! For chapter 1. This counts for that 'Find the Earring quest' lol and actualy yes, I do have 9 kids in mabinogi. It's truely insane but that's what happens when you marry my adorable husband .

Though, most of the kids are alot like me :D

Power to the Kitty!
