Keireen walks his castles halls towards his own war room every guard along the way salutes him with no hesitation as they know his wrath would be immense. Keireen eventually gets to his war room and walks in where there is a still injured Ratankira standing there being healed.
"So, how much of the report is true?" Keireen asks
"Definitely has black eyes sometimes but unlike yours they are pure black like staring into an abyss, he may be able to fully become like that as the reports suggested, I saw almost like liquid darkness on his finger tips. I dont understand it but-" he gets cut off by coughing up some blood into his hand before continuing "I swear his magic got stronger from what I sensed, hes definitely a better fighter than his late brother from all I could assess" Ratankira says
"So we killed the brains now we kill the brawn" Keireen says
"Indeed" Ratankira says
"What was the condition of Renamerima castle and his army before you left" Keireen asks
"Well the castle was definitely going to be taken and his soldiers had faced minimal casualtiers from what I saw, it was also a much smaller army than what that soldier said he had during the first battle" Ratankira says
"Hmm maybe some kind of elite soldiers" Keireen says
"Another thing, I stayed around a little longer than they knew, I saw Reinlas get hit with a ballista taking him straight through the 3 outer walls of the castle and into one of the siege towers which was lined with metal. His armour didnt get pierced and he made a dent in that metal getting up soon after. Its my belief his armour and even the blade he has is made from Geirniam as its been called" Ratankira says
"Smart, strong cutting blade and an extremely hard to break armour" Keireen says
"Indeed" Ratankira says
"Well you look over what you observed and devise strategies for following battles, oh and get your spies into his kingdom, I want more information and just heal up alright?" Keireen says as he walks out of the room
"Just heal up he says, what does it look like im doing?" Ratankira says to himself sarcastically as he holds his stomach because of the ain he still feels
Keireen walks to the torture chambers down in the dungeons and onikerm is coming out of the room lathered in blood with his natural insane smile still on his face.
"Oh Keireen how perfect" Onikerm says enthusiastically
"Report Onikerm" Keireen says
"With pleasure, the test subjects are giving me a fantastical idea of how they will turn out, obviously they arent capable of it but we need to preserve the shards so we take what we can" Onikerm says

"Indeed but I want fear to be made" Keireen says
Onikerm lets out a small insane laugh.
"Oh they will make fear and much more" Onikerm says
"Perfect, keep me updated Onikerm, I want them ready as fast as possible" Keireen says
"Ill do my best" Onikerm says as his insane smile turns to a sadisic grin and he walks into a room
"NO! PLEASE!" A man shouts quickly followed by gut wrenching screaming and laughter from Onikerm
Keireen walks away towards another room and stands across from something in a small magical container.
"You will be our finest and bloodiest achievment" Keireen says smirking and leaves the room
Back over with Reinlas and Linra...
"Y-your pregnant?!" Reinlas shouts astonished the guards of the castle look over hearing that, taking the rare times they actually look away from where they normally look to look at their king and queen in this moment of astonishment
"Lets take this to the roof, my dear Reinlas" Linra says to him as they teleport to the roof
Reinlas scans her to see if its a joke but its not shes indeed pregnant with twins a boy and a girl.
"Since when Linra?" Reinlas asks still quite surprised
"Before the Valley Citys destruction,,," Linra replies a bit saddened by her answer
"Oh..." Reinlas exclaims sadly as he walks over and hugs her from behind
"I didnt tell you because of it, I knew you were to greif stricken at the time and that a victory, a good victory would be the best time to tell you. Though it wasnt always the plan..." Linra says
"What do you mean?" Reinlas asks
Linra sighs.
"I had told farenhale the day before the citys destruction about the pregnancy, I wanted him to distract you the next day so I could set some things up and surprise you with the news. He was happy to help he said and gave some names for us to consider, I told him the time I wanted you distracted... one hour after the attack started" Linra says
Reinlas doesn't say anything as he doesnt know what to say, a few minutes of silence pass by as Reinlas processes the information.
"What names did he suggest?" Reinlas asks
"Farenisle for the boy and Liara for the girl. I said the girls name was to close to my own and it may confuse people, his response was that ive been around for 900 billion years if they mess up my name it must be recorded in a book for it would have to be a great jest" Linra says
"I say we go with the names" Reinlas says
Linra rests her head back onto his shoulder.
"I was thinking the same thing" Linra says
Reinlas puts his hand on her stomach.
"Then we will welcome Farenisle and Liara to this world and our kingdom soon" Reinlas says with a hopeful and happy voice though with an underlying sadness due to Farenhale being a big part of this conversation
Linra turns around to him and kisses him.
Months and hours of labor pains later...
Reinlas walks into the rooms when the healers come out and he sees Linra with their children in her arms fairly peaceful which clearly has the pretty exhausted and pained Linra happy. Reinlas conjures a chair next to the bed and sits down.
"Welcome to the world little ones" Reinlas says when he looks at Liara and Farenisle
"Finally our children are here and will soon see the greatness our kingdom has, I hope they're happy as they grow" Linra says happily and hugs liara and farenisle carefully
"As do I Linra, as do I" Reinlas says
Reinlas uses stronger healign magic on linra so that shes able to recover from this quicker and get up as she teleports on better clothes. They then walk out the room.
"Congratulations" All the guards around them and the healers say
"Thank you, all of you for the congratulations but please keep this quiet until tomorrow when the announcement of the birth is made" Reinlas says
"Our lips are sealed your majesties" They all say as Reinlas, Linra and their newborn children teleport to their royal chambers to sleep...
