A father's tears.

"So, my loves. What's the story?"

A sigh left Senessa's mouth. Anessa looked like she wanted to take the little boy else where but her father didn't seem to be letting her baby go. So even though she didn't want to, she let her father have his time rocking the boy to sleep.

••••••••••••••••••••••

After a while…..

.

You see,

Sanzak was a very cheerful man. There weren't many things that could make him angry; even when he was fighting on the barbarian war front he always had a smile on his face that his soldiers loved.

But his eldest daughter was one of his reverse scales that he hated to admit but had to, that he will always lose his shit about.

She picked up her mother's weapon, which was the sword and always loved learning swordsmanship. She also had a love for adventure, but he never thought she would end up adventuring all her life with an emotionless lizard she found.

At first, he was afraid that her daughter was being deceived, but quickly realized that the two were made for each other in a very weird way.

So even though he was reluctant he gave his blessing he let her be with her chosen.

However, it hadn't even been a thousand years, when he and his wife along with the boy's mother realized that those two maybe... just maybe, were meant to be kept worlds apart. But alas it was too late.

▪︎

Hanjun Albella and Lilleron Aros'Tirrion were called many things.

The legendary adventurers.

The unchained.

The thoughtless apostles.

These were only a few of them.

▪︎

You name anything related to freedom? Those two will be used as examples. Whether those examples meant good or bad, the world doesn't care. Maybe it was his fault for naming his daughter "unchained". (Lilleron means 'unchained' in ancient elven).

But whether her adventure or her apparent disregard for anything related to family or she never even visiting them for 100,000 years, he could forgive all of them. Heck, she never even visited home when her younger sister was born.

But this!!!??

NO!

ABSOLUTELY NOT!

"So you mean Lilleron had a child with Hanjun and took the baby out of her womb and placed her in the fetus growth liquid because she thought having a child will HINDER her entertainment?

And when you girls met her, she didn't even bring her husband with her.

And said to bring him up as a soldier?.... and left?

All these happened 800 years ago, and you girls didn't even say anything to me?!!!"

Senessa sighed when her husband yelled.

"If we said anything, what would you have done, honey?"

"I will go find them and beat the fuck-"

"Exactly. Me and Anessa didn't tell you that exactly because of that reason. No matter what, is there a use for reprimanding them, when they disregarded their unborn baby in such a heartless way?

No, right?

What are we to do? Force them to accept the baby?

Then the baby would grow in an environment where he detests everything because of his parents' behavior".

After thinking for a moment she added, "And Anessa was already hellbent on declaring the baby hers anyway".

Anessa only nodded in a sagely way like she heard something righteous.

Sanzak let out a breath he never knew he kept inside and slightly slumped on the couch.

He was a father and he loved his daughters. But his sadness and rage bubbling from the depth of his being didn't help his already emotional personality.

So he silently cried, apologizing to the beautiful boy in his hands. Apologising that he didn't bring up her daughter well. Apologising for being part of the reason the baby won't feel his mother's warmth.

His strength left his body.

He was trembling.

It was hard for him as he was used to his wife's gentle personality. His wife never scolded him and always spoke to him in a loving tone. They rarely, and I mean very very rarely had a fight as he and his wife were both very understanding individuals.

So, his marriage life was a breeze and he not even for a split second regretted that got his ass beaten and got smitten with Senessa Aros'Tirrion all those years ago.

Senessa could feel her husband's emotions because of their soul bond ritual, and eventually she couldn't hold it in anymore.

Her husband was emotional, but the only time she saw her husband shed tears of grief was when he lost his father to the barbarian war front and when his mother decided to enter reincarnation with her husband.

Senessa silently moved to the couch opposite to her and hugged her husband tightly comforting him by rubbing his back. Anessa had a neutral look in her eyes as she watched this scene. She hasn't interacted with her older sister much.

She was only 10,000 years old; the age disparity between the sisters and her older sister's unhealthy obsession don't do much help to her already indifferent relationship with her.

But even when she was still a child she told herself that she will surpass her older sister and always stay with her parents. And she did.

She was a talent better than her sister and she worked harder than anyone that she is reaching her 2nd evolution already.

After a while both parents calmed down. Anessa decided it was time to take her baby off her father's hands and she gently took the boy from him.

Sanzak looked at this and couldn't help but be proud at this sight. And a little happy that the boy came to their lives. Now his 2nd daughter won't have to marry and can always be papa's girl.

*ahem Sanzak cleared his throat.

"So, honey bun, let me ask you even though I already know what you will say. Are you ready to take responsibility for him? Teach him of the way of the blood elf? About the outside world?". Sanzak asked looking into his daughter's eyes.

Anessa looked at her father with firm a gaze and replied,

"Yes I am father"

"Good then. Other things can wait for a while until he grows up". Saying that he got up from the couch.

"Now can I have my handsome grandson so I could give him a ride to show him our kingdom?"

[A/N]

I'm not going to go into much detail about power levels at the start of the story, but just know there are many power hierarchies in the solar system and some races have completely different ones from the elves.

For now I'll introduce the elven power hierarchy.

▪︎

1st evolution -

- This is something all elves have to go through at the age of 10.

2nd evolution-

- This is where any elf evolve to become a high elf.

3rd evolution AKA State of Ascendency -

- The state where a being is in partial Ascendency to godhood.

4th evolution AKA Godhood-

-The state where a being gains divinity and concept

▪︎

The rest will be explained later in the story.

Hope you enjoyed the building so far. If you liked it add it to the library.
