The Grey Tower

Miahala Ives "I know, child," Mia said fondly. It had been a wonderful day for her as well, breaking away from the struggles that had plagued her mind since her return. "But we are fortunate that we will have more days now. I look forward to getting to know you again, and your husband and your children." She turned a significant, warm look to all of them. "One night is not all that we have."

Riahana reached out and took her husband's hand in her own, and her warm smile broadened, "Very true, and I suspect I do not speak just for myself when I say I look forward to many more evenings like this one." She stood, and Tia followed suit.

"Memme, you are always welcome in our home," Ria added before giving Mia a hug.

Tia, now much more subdued thanks to the late hour also offered Mia a hug, "I've very much enjoyed meeting and...starting to get to know you, Grandmemme."

Miahala Ives The Green hugged all of the members of her family that stood before her, including Gareth, even though they did not yet know each other and he was not a child. He was a part of her lineage now, and she warmly accepted him as such. Tia handled the gesture with ease, although Einion seemed a little shy about it so she didn't force him to endure such torment for too long.

"It has been wonderful to meet the my great, great grandchildren," she said, "and my great grandson-in-law. I look forward to our new future. For now, young ones need rest after much excitement." She smiled again and then moved to the door. "Good night to you all, dear ones." She inclined her head, and then was gone.

Riahana closed the door after Mia's departure, and turned to look at her family. She couldn't help the smile firmly stuck in place as she looked to her twins, and husband, "It is still. . .surreal, but I am grateful you all have had a chance to meet her. . . and will have the chance to get to know her."

She then looked to her husband, "Do you think I could leave the arrangements for our troublemakers getting tested to you? Given you are the channeler?"

((OOC: We can wrap up soon, promise! In fact, feel free to wrap up on your next post?))

Gareth smiled warmly and bowed his head. "I will take care of it, my Gaidar," he said, fond teasing glinting in his pale grey eyes before he turned to their children. "For now, clean up and start getting ready for bed. I have a feeling that your days here at the Tower are only going to get fuller and fuller..."
