《Child of Terra》Chapter 2- Dinner
Advertisement
Soon after the trio's bath was completed, the Chosen made sure to dress them in the finest of clothing. From a pair of snow-white dresses with etchings of silvered snowflakes sewn around the hem for the twins, to a pair of endarkened crimson trousers with a bright red vest for Nox. These three were then led, albeit slowly, towards the dining hall where the Ageless had at long last arrived and were awaiting their presence.
The dining hall itself wasn't all that spectacular, as one would expect from a God King. Instead, it was a simple room which could fit approximately twelve guests to enjoy a simple meal prepared by the castle's staff. The area itself was of a stone called Shadowed Marble, which held the property of absorbing all darkness within an area of one metre per kilogram. This merely means that the room was forever brightened by such stones, and would not need any form of light.
However, it also meant that the "light" which was left caused the world within the space to appear devoid of all colours. Which is why Sarah had come up with a way to combat the lack of prominent colours. In that she simply had torches lining the entirety of the room which did burn with an iridescent light made up of her own energies. Hence the reason why she was the Goddess of such a thing.
Now, the room in which they were led into Held a few tapestries hugging the walls which did show some of the histories of Terra's greatest events. Such as the first documented war between the Ageless and the Humans, how he ascended to Godhood, and one which showed the multitude of worlds which were within his Pantheon. As to why these were here and not elsewhere? Well, the God King simply desired it here, as the dining hall was also used as a meeting point between him and his closest family for business, and the like.
No. There was not any paint atop the floor, walls, nor ceiling, as such a thing would simply be eaten away by the Shadowed Marble, however, that did not stop a few from trying. Which is why, once they entered such a place, there were a few spots of white paint being slowly eaten away by the essences of the Marble itself, as they were each led over to a furnished table of white stone. Upon such a stone was an equally white cloth which held crystal plates, tableware, and cups upon saucers.

The chairs, however, were made up of iron and amethyst, and were coated with a soft blanket and pillow for those of whom still felt the world around them, and were not an Undead being. Of which Sarah, Nox, the twins, and Sakura were not. Yes. This meant that the Ageless, God King of the Terran Pantheon was in fact an Undead creature.
In any case, this one was sitting upon a chair farthest from the door, and was speaking to Sarah with a look of concerned bemusement. For behind their persons, and in a corner, was a trussed up Sakura with a flat chest, as she had no doubt tried her best to seduce the his person once more. Even though she knew it would be for naught, she would still try.
As to the why of it all? Well, some beings prefer to sleep their way to the top, and had targeted the Ageless, even though he only desires his wife called Sarah.
"Papa," cried out Nox the moment he noted his father's presence, and waddled towards his person upon his hind legs.
The one who was called as such then stood up to reveal his endarkened furred, Kitsune self. He stood tall at nearly two metres in height, and was much the same as the smaller. In that his own fur held a few streaks of silver which many believed it was the night sky upon the very earth that they tread upon. What is more, the tails behind his person counted as nine, and each moved as though a light breeze was gently dancing amongst their number. Whereas the clothing, which was now stretched as he bent towards the ground, and opened his arms to receive his son, was much the same as Nox. In that he also wore a pair of crimson trousers and a bright red vest upon his torso.
Once the child was close to his own paws, did he then sweep the other into his arms. Whereupon the pair did laugh as they twirled around in a tight circle, which then led to a small hugging session as the God King's eyes did sparkle with a great warmth of amber that would have made those of whom who worked under his person wonder if they were seeing this correctly. For an Undead being has two curses within them, which also extends to any and all who have obtained godhood.

The first was "The Madness". In that, once they become emotionally unstable, they each become a berserking terror which can destroy nations if left unchecked. To combat such a thing, however, there is that which is called "The Void". This was simply that which devours all emotions, feelings, and the like so that the Madness never encroaches upon their minds. However, this can be overwhelmed quite easily, leading to many Undead beings to simply lose all chances of returning, and must be destroyed. For such a thing is quite infectious to those who are of this race.
"So?" wondered aloud the God King as he stared upon his son who sat upon his right arm with the left paw holding his body still, "How's my favourite son?" This led to him nuzzling his nose into the boy-child's belly a few times before pulling away, and yes, the other did giggle at such a gesture.
"I'm good, Papa. I caught a rabbit today," grinned Nox, who then proceeded to speak on of an exaggerated tale of how he caught the creature that was under one of the more favoured trees within Sarah's garden. As well as how the creature tasted really sweet, which led to his father looking over at Sarah, who still wore the same dress as before, with a look of not understanding in his features.
"It was a sweet biscuit," she mouthed with a light smile as the twins waddled over to her person with the look of wanting to be held as well. For their own mother was still tied up in the corner, and did not want to bother her at the time. Yes. She did oblige their small selves, and smiled sweetly as they reached for the silverware which were to be used for the evening's meal. However, they were stopped almost immediately, much to their dismay.
"Now, now, Mia, Maya," chuckled the Ageless as his eyes spotted their antics, "the food will be served soon enough. So no need to play with the silverware, understand?"
"Okay Uncle God," they both chimed in, and sat patiently whilst he sat Nox in a high chair next to his own. Where he did sit back down just as a small cart of iron was wheeled in between him and his son.
This led to the revealing of some meat with gravy poured on top of it, and some greens upon the side. Of which was then cut up and served to the boy-child who drooled with wide open eyes and ears laid back. Whereupon he was then given a small fork in order to feed himself, but instead yipped several times and dove right into the food, much to the horror of his mother and those that came to serve the meal to them.
However, the Ageless simply chuckled and waved to the servants, of whom were Elves in mouse-grey robes, to give a meal to the other three at the table. For he did not need to eat, drink, nor sleep, and was content with simply watching them all enjoy themselves with the food presented to their persons. Yes. The twins followed suit with what Nox had done with his own food, and were soon seen scarfing down their own plates of meat and vegetables as though they were simple animals.
Of which they were, as all children within the world of Terra are simply that when they are very young. Animals. Yes. They do outgrow such animalistic tendencies when they become older, but only if they interact with other intelligent beings for a set number of cycles. Else they simply become that which they were born into as. Hence why they ate as animals do, and not as the sophisticated aristocrats many would believe they should be.
