Calystia shook her head and quickly looked down as tears filled her eyes, so that he couldn't see her face. "No. Andromeda is dead. I fear Kareena has become powerless in Markus care and will not last long." It was nearly impossible to keep her feeling hidden, but somehow she had found a great of strength she never she had. Being taken from her home to this had her confused and frightened, but she tried her best to let no one know. The loniless of being without her sisters weighed on her soul greatly, but now acknowledged that she had lost Andromeda made her feel as if she would burst.

Zzzzzz....
Raymer watched Calystia. He didn't understand why the general wanted to keep a mermaid child. Raymer put his arms on his thighs and hunched over to look at his hands. He thought of all they had destroyed and hurt. Was that all he was good for. A dog of war, to come and do his masters bidding. Why was he now doubting himself? What was the catalyst for the character analysis? Surely not a snip of a girl. But he knew, if he was brutally honest with himself, where his contention came from. He knew this whole situation was wrong. He looked over at the girl.

( Remember, Castiel was called a traitor. He told Andromeda about Thorn accused him of betraying king Racine. That is why the king trades him to Axel? Did you want me to find it and repost it?)
Castiel looked over at Andromeda's sleeping form. She looked so at peace.

Racine called a portal and charged in as soon as it opened.
