"What indeed..." Elysse murmurred. Her golden eyes fixed on Daevyn's peaceful face. She continued speaking thoughtfully, as if to herself. "This boy is the key to both great power and a delicate balance. My order has searched for him for many years. And now I am the one to find him. Wyerma would say that the whole world must be told of the Immortal's birth, but that would cause unnecessary panic among the people. It might even waste what could be a marvelous opportunity..."

Advanced Development (story)
Now he sighed in defeat. "Forgive me. I know you speak the truth. Not even a Devoted of the Hyspire would lie about this."
Aerana looked at Daevyn. He had woken up when Elysse took him, but he did not seem upset by his nap being cut short. He was surprisingly alert and developed for being little more than a week old. He already had a good layer of soft brown hair, and paid more attention to sounds and lights than another baby his same age might. His eyes looked up at Elysse with obvious interest.

Home and Fear (story)
On that particular summer night, Xeldan and Aerana had started out at home along with their week old son, Daevyn. Aerana sat in a wooden chair near the the warmly burning flames in the fireplace, cradling the baby boy in her arms. Her sapphire blue eyes were filled with worry. Her husband paced the room restlessly, his long strides taking him from wall to wall in three steps.
There were not many objects in the room to get in his way. There was the fireplace that was used for warmth as well as cooking. There was a small table with four chairs, the extra being used for company. There were a few cupboards for supplies. There were two doors, one leading outside and the other to the bedroom, the only other room in the house. It was small, but it served their needs and it was home.
