~~~(POV: Violet Adamo)~~~

~~~(Location: Capital of Arkon Kingdom, Arkon City)~~~

~~~(Time: 3:46 PM)~~~

Arkon City is one of the more beautiful Capital Cities we've been to. The trip here hasn't been too eventful, but we're following the instructions from the magic item to find our children. We've got to go through another teleportation gate. Our destination is in the far north, and it's quite expensive since the adventurers guild overcharges the use for it.

We have enough money between the three of us to make one more trip, and then we're out of funds, and we'll have to walk. "Where does the magic item say they're at?" The player-made magic item is really expensive but ingenious and worth every bit of money we have. Chris is letting me hold onto the item, but he'd like an update if there is one.

I take it out of my Inventory and see that their location hasn't changed. "It still says that they're in a place called Border City... Too bad we don't know anything about this place, we have a destination close to it... The city they're in doesn't have a teleportation gate." The magic item tells us relevant information about where our kids are and the best way to get to them.

It sucks that the place they're staying doesn't have a teleportation gate. It'd save us a lot of time. "I hope we catch them before they move. We're lucky that they're together, and we don't have to track them down separately." He's right about that. We lucked out on them still being together. Marcus is asleep on his back as we walk the streets.

Marcus was up late last night, saying he was having a hard time. Didn't specify why, and I'm worried about him. He's been sleeping a lot lately, and he's gotten a little taller. "Do you think there is anything wrong with Marcus?" My husband lets out a small and low chuckle. This is something that Cera went through when he was younger.

My biggest concerns are from him telling me how much his body hurts and why everything aches. "He's just going through some growing pains... Remember when Cera was his age, boys grow in painful bursts from time to time. Our metabolisms and bodies change slightly." he doesn't have to get all technical with me. It sucks, in my opinion.

My last child is starting to grow up on me. I bet he'll be towering over me like Cera does before I can realize it. "He'll be in pain for a few days, and his body will take a break. He'll be going through this until he's done growing. It's the worst when he's between 10 and 13. He's got a few years before that." That brings me little comfort. I remember those nights.

Having to rock Cera to sleep and try to find ways to ease his pain cause we didn't have money for medication to help. I felt like a terrible and rotten mother not being able to help. "Don't remind me, Chris... Those days were almost as bad as when Hailey was going through changes... She was a hellspawn..." The laughter rises out from both of us.

Getting to see my other babies again... It's going to be an amazing feeling... I wonder how much they've changed? "Don't worry, Violet... We're going to find them, and we're never going to be apart again." I hope to all that is good and pure that he's right. The thought of having to separate from my babies again is like hot iron through my heart.

~~~(Time: 3:55 PM)~~~

Seeing my wife in the pained state she's in... It makes me want to pull my hair out sometimes. There is nothing worse than seeing the one you love suffer and not doing anything about it. Being able to find them has eased her pain, but she was in a dark place there for a while. She lived for Cera and Hailey. Them just leaving took her heart with her.

Marcus being here really helped, and I don't want to think of how back she'd be without him. "You want to carry him for a bit?" She raises her head, and a smile of pure joy graces my vision. I gently remove Marcus from his piggyback ride on me, and I help Violet get him all set up on her back. He's sleeping like a rock and isn't disturbed by the movement in the slightest.

Her aura and energy brighten, and her frown and sadness are long gone. I'll be the first to say that moms generally have a better connection to their children than their fathers. There are exceptions, of course, but a mother's love isn't something a father can replicate or replace. She loves her children so much. Some would say it's suffocating.

They're not wrong, and I'd say that fits perfectly, Violet. "He weighs just as much as Cera when he was this age... I can't describe how much this means to me and how much I miss carrying around one of my children..." We walk side by side down the road towards the inn we're staying at for the night. My love for all of them is greater than I could describe.

There is so much that we've done together since we separated from Hailey and Cera. We've been on our adventures. It's time that we're a family again. "We'll get up as early as we can, get some food in the morning tomorrow, and take the teleportation gate." Our plans are pretty straightforward. Thanks to the magic item being so accurate, it doesn't require much on our part.

She moves closer and leans on my shoulder as we walk, Marcus soundly asleep on her back. "I'm betting you're as tired as I am, huh... We're getting in that big bath connected to our room. We haven't gotten to use it yet, thanks to being so busy. I want to soak my body in some hot water." While I'm not a bath guy, but if it's big enough to be comfortable for the two of us, then I'm down.

~~~(Warning: Graphic Content Below)~~~

We managed to do it... We recaptured all of our objectives and managed to even save a few million women. The way they used them like cattle to reproduce and bolster their forces disgusts me. The only use men have is being food for the current forces and newborn monsters. The reproduction cycle of monsters in the monster horde is a blight.

If I could, I would've continued the campaign into the monster's territory. However, my soldiers were tired and wanted to come home and see their wives and children. Who am I to deny them that after witnessing such atrocities. "Saintess Lucy?" A knock on the door and a timid voice take me out of my memories of the past two weeks.

A head pokes through the door, and one of the most important people in the world to me smiles as she sees me. "Come on, little sister... Don't keep me waiting. I'd love to spend some time with you." The door pushes open, and she runs over to the bed. She's not my blood sister, but I've raised her since I rescued her from the city she was in.

She's one of the lucky ones, hiding in a place that the monsters couldn't see or smell. I can't imagine the things she's witnessed, but she's untouched and remains pure. "I was wondering if you could teach me how to use healing magic!" She hops onto my lap, and I hold her. All my skills and attacks are combat-oriented, but I know a person who could teach her.
