Shima moved closer and sits down. "What is on your mind?" He suspects it has something to do with Demetria and Bael...but he doesn't want to seem presumptuous.

"Lots of things," she exhaled slowly. "Most have to do with the wake of destruction my cursed sister has wrought. I do not know what Omnium is doing, but I want to help how I can. I have created a new world, safe for now. I think it would be prudent to move the family there, rather than cramping up your quarters. I would prefer to remain with you, though." Her hand sought his. "For multiple reasons."

Shima squeezes Alethia's hand softly. "I would like for you to stay here as well...and if your family would decide that would be a good place to stay for now, I will help as well as I can. Even if your sister and her...'mate' are now heads of this pantheon, I still control this gate and I make the rules here." He smiles a bit mischievously. "If they want to use the gate, they will have to follow my rules..they will not be able to so easily follow to your new world for a while."

"Thank you Shima," Alethia sighed in relief, kissing his cheek. "I brought my children here because they have been through enough, and need some rest before moving on. Judging by the time my good sister is taking, she is likely engaged in trouble already or is dawdling." Alethia moved closer to hug Shima. "The other matter of concern is that I do not have a great deal of time left before I will become.. incapacitated."

Shima's eyes widen and he takes her hand in both of his. "Incapacitated..what has happened to you?" He asks in great concern.

For the first time since arriving, a look of amusement lights up in Alethia's eyes as she guides his hands to her abdomen. "You did," she said simply. "It's normally a good type of incapacitation. Unfortunately, the timing is going to be terrible of things aren't resolved in short order."

Shima's eyes widen and a slow grin spreads on his face. "R...really? Y..we are going to have a child?"

"Yes," Alethia said warmly, simply. "And it shant be long. I'm sorry I didn't tell you before." She looked remorseful. "Between Demetria and Bael, and everything else going on, I simply didn't have a single spare moment."

Shima hugs Alethia. "I understand...we will find a way to return balance to this pantheon. I'm sure that whatever Omnium is doing, it will be of help."

"I have faith in him as well," Alethia crooned softly, relaxing in Shima's arms. Unbidden, her mind prodded her conscience with tasks that needed finishing. "I have to go do something," she sighed next to Shima's ear, hugging him all the more fiercely. "When I return, we can begin trying to find loopholes in our contract with the demons."

Shima nods and strokes her hair softly. "Very well my dear, please be careful. Shall I get a head start and speak with Daniel while waiting for you?"

"If he's not at rest with Diana," Alethia reluctantly agreed. "If he does not wish to be disturbed, then let him rest." With that, she teleported away.
