Cain was having dinner with his disciples that night when Divine Elder Mariel showed up to hear what message Cain had to relay to her. The moment that she came in the door, Luna climbed from her seat into his lap, claiming her spot in no uncertain terms and glaring at the Elder.

"I think I offended you with my game earlier, little one. I'm not trying to steal your spot. You can relax. I even brought a peace offering." Mariel told her, holding out a piece of candy.

"It's ambrosia honey candy from the Divine Planes. I am certain that you've never tasted anything like it before."

Luna's eyes went wide as she popped the candy in her mouth, and she totally forgot that she was in the middle of dinner.

"Oh, this is amazing. Apology accepted. But you still can't have my spot. Take his other side."

Mariel laughed and sat down on Cain's left in an open seat, waiting for him to finish eating so they could talk.
