I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has given my story a review. It means so much to me to know what you think, and it does influence the story. The very first review I ever had was a continuation error, and because of that person, I was able to fix the error. I could not be happier to have the followers that I do. I hope you will continue to tell what is one your mind so that I can always make the story better.

Also, I'm posting two chapters today, but both are actually rather short. For some reason I had a lot of trouble writing about Flora and Musa by themselves. For Flora, she is just so quiet in the show, and I wasn't sure how exactly she would mature. I hope these tales are to you liking! :D

(A little bit of backstory – Helia is now a teacher at Red Fountain. He teaches non-aggressive handling, meaning that he works with students so that they know that they do not always have to use swords and weapons to be a specialist. Flora on the other hand is a young mother who lives in a cabin in the woods near Magix, engulfed with nature and working with the pixies and nymphs while raising her three year old. Helia does come home every day though, and he is why they do not live in Lynphea.)

"Mommy," calls out the three year old from the back room of the cabin. He came out holding a flower petal in his hands, a thank you from the nymphs after Flora had helped them to replenish their food supply.

"Thank you, baby." She picks the boy up and takes the flower from him. She walks them back into the house and seats her little guy at the table.

As she is preparing some food for dinner, awaiting Helia's arrival, she feeds her son some healthy snacks. Soon, the door was opened and Helia entered. The door jumped from his chair and raced for his father. "Papa!" he called to Helia.

"Good evening, Juniper, my dear son. How are you?" He smiles at his son and pulls him into his arms. Juniper wraps his little arms around his father's neck and says, "Good papa. You? Miss you, Papa!" Juniper is still wrapping his head around language, but he loves talking to papa and mommy.

Helia looks to Flora and smiles. "It was a good day. I missed you too, buddy. How was your day Flora?" He walks over to her and leans in, their son still in his arms, and places a soft kiss on her lips.

Flora reciprocates the kiss and smiles as he draws away. "My day was just fine. The nymphs sent a thank you, and my plants finally bloomed. Also, Juniper got to talk to the nymphs. Didn't you honey?" she cooed at her son, rubbing his back.

Juniper smiled big and nodded vigorously at his mother. "Yea, yea. Nyf's are good."

Helia and Flora chuckle some at their son's attempt at the word nymph. Flora returns to making dinner, and just a few minutes later she is putting plates on the kitchen table. "Dinner boys!" she calls to her family.

Helia walks in with little Juniper on his heels. "Dinner, dinner. Nummy food!"

Helia smiles at Flora and his son. He helps Juniper into his seat, then takes his own. Flora joins them. Helia pulls out a letter from the coat on the back of his chair. "Flora, my dear, I got a letter at Red Fountain today. It's for you. I'm pretty sure it's from Bloom." He hands her the letter, and begins to eat dinner. Juniper follows his father's lead, then asks his mother, "Mommy, letter from Anty Boom?" He points at the letter and some spinach falls from his fork.

"Now, Juniper," Flora starts. "You know better than to talk with your mouth full of food. Finish chewing before you speak, please. But, yes, It's from you aunt Bloom." Flora opens it and begins reading. Moments later, she smiles wide and says to Helia and Juniper, "It seems Bloom is going to be crowned Queen of Eraklyon next month, after the baby is born. She wants us to visit her. Well, it officially says that we've been invited." She smiles at Helia, and he smiles back at her.

He knows just how much Flora loves her friends. "It says that the girls and their families will also be there. Oh, yay! I've missed them all so much," She says. "Helia, can you get the time off of work? I mean, what can you do about your classes?"

Helia finishes the bite he just took, then says, "I should be able to get the time off. Eraklyon is one of the beneficiaries, and I think that if the future queen of Eraklyon has asked my family to come, the school will let me. I can always assign my classes to do an independent studies program."

Flora smiles at him and says, "Thank you, my love. It means a lot to me. I love you so much Helia."
