    Dorota nods. Yes, I think it will work. I don't know much about adamantine or mithril, though.

    "We do have a lot of adamantium but I was under the impression it isn't capable of leading ather of eldritch?" Cessie asks with a raised eyebrow. Of course, Harnel's adamatite is probably different from normal adamatite.

    [Courtyard]

    "I was in fact." Cessie replies, showing no sign of her detour to the bathroom. "Harnel is slowly getting better but he's very weak at the moment so he have to stay in bed." She explains as she holds out a part of a dragon bone. "You will be very weak too Sarget and Sakura is going to have the baby soon... will it effect you somehow? Technically you would be a grandfather."

    The treant smiles and makes a pleased rumbling noise. "A very proud one." The treant bends down and holds out his hand for Cessie to put the bone into. "It's good that everything wi- That Harnel and I will be well before the baby comes. Sakura doesn't need any more stress." Not everything is fine. Adir is still missing after all.

    Plus Nadas knows nothing about such specifics anyways, so asking him really doesn't help Cessie.

    "Yes, but if the spirit can't lead aether through the material it can really do anything can it? It's rather odd honestly as technically the spirit is supposed to be the material, or at least represent it in the spirit world."

    [Courtyard]

    "Yeah... I just hope we can get her to a healer in time when it get's time. Perhaps it might be better to get a healer to be here though? I wonder if there are healers for hire, it might be good to have one here just in case." Cessie tells Sarget as she tries to skip past the issue with Adir for now.

    Kashi, who has been napping atop his coinpile on the aerie, awakes to see the scene down below. Cessie is just standing around a tree, looking at it and-

    Hey wait, are those fruit?

    >.>
    <.<

    Well, surely Cessie wouldn't mind him having just one, right?

    That rationalization firmly in his head, Kashi unfolds his wings and beast them a few times experimentally to work the kinks out. Then he'll slink off his hoard over to the edge of the tower and push off, swooping down to the ground.

    At the last second, his wings unfurl to their full span and catch the air, leveling him off just as the tip of his tail scrapes the earth. Using all the speed he gain from the dive, he shoots toward Sarget, mouth open and pointed to grab a fruit.

    "I'm sure everything will work out, but it might be wise to take precauti-" The treant breaks off when he sees Kashi barreling toward him. Sarget's been having this problem a lot, so at least he's ready for it. He raises a hand in front of the fruit. Kashi will either have to change direction or crash.

    Cessie wasn't really as prepared as Sarget for the sudden attack but she's attentive enough to see Kashi diving against the treant. If it had been attack against her she probably would have reacted faster but now the dragons dive have to resolve first before she will do anything.

    Kashi, not experienced with aerial maneuvers, slams into Sarget's arm tooth first, chomping down hard reflexively. As soon as his paws hit the dirt, he lets go, stumbling back and away from the crazy moving tree.

    Snyuuuu... <Owwwwwww...>" Kashi pokes at a loose fang with his forked tongue gently, wincing as it wiggles in the gum.

    Poor Kashi. Sarget never wanted to hurt him. At least it's better than the alternative, as far as Sarget is aware. "I am sorry, young one, I did not mean to hurt you."

    The whole notion of making a golem out of metal is interesting, Dorota says. Alchemy can only do it with clay, which is the only non-living material suspectible enough to the Divine Fire.

    "In my world? None, such materials doesn't exist where I'm from to my knowledge. Honestly I haven't tried doing it with adamtituium yet but my husband claimed it makes you immune to 'magic' which here seem to mean aether and eldritch energy but not terrestrial one." Cessie explains.

    [Courtyard]

    The sorceress can only sigh at the dragons misfortune, he was far too hungry for his own good.

    "That is Kashi, Harnel's pet. He's a construct which is somehow able to convert food into gold which presumably is why he's hungry all the time. I think he's going to be okay though, he just ate nearly everything in the kitchen..." Cessie slowly approaches the construct to inspect his injuries.

    "How... odd. I've never heard of such a property for that metal. It's particularly strong and durable, yes, but far from immune to magic and enchantment."

    Kashi pokes the tooth a bit too hard, and it comes loose entirely, falling down his throat as he instinctively tilts his head back and swallows.

    "Snyui! <Gah!>" And there it goes, down his gullet.

    Hold on now. Just as the first tooth disappears, a new one is poking out of the space left behind, pearly and new. He still seems to be in pain for now, but the damage has properly repaired itself in very little time.

    The dragon-golem shakes his head a few times, staring in awe of the moving tree. Crazy...

    Snyyuuu... <Why does it move? Can I have a fruit please?>" Massive draconic eyes of cute gooooo!

    "Kashi... those fruits might be dangerous, you might be immune but I don't want to take that risk." She imagine Kashi would be even worse as a demon. "You already eaten everything in the kitchen, if you want anything more you have to wait until we replace everything." She tells the dragon in a firm voice.

    Kashi sticks his tongue out at Cessie, clearly feeling better now.

    Snyyuuu!! <Liar, I only ate like, half of everything there, at most. There's even still lots of ice cream!>" Kashi can't believe Cessie would try such an obvious lie on him like that. He isn't that dumb.

    "Snyui! <Fine then, I'm gonna go nap some more.>" It seems all the dragon does now is eat and sleep. Idly, he wonders why Cessie hasn't commented on the fact that he's twice as large as the last time she's seen him, but shakes off the thought as he flaps his wings and takes off for the aerie, where his self-claimed space awaits.

    Sarget watches the dragon go for a moment, then turns his attention back to Cessie. "I will take the dragon bone now." He holds out his hand for her to put it in. It's about time he got better.

    Cessie, having not actually checked the kitchen since Kashi's little raid sigh, "We really need to get used to each other. He need to learn some restrain and I need to learn to accept him better." She shakes her her slightly and then hands over the dragonbone. "I warn you, it will hurt and you will feel very tired from what I have read."

    Sarget rumbles as his hand touches the bone. This is... uncomfortable, to say the least. "Thank you, Cessie. We will speak again when this is all over." And with that, the treant will turn and walk off to some quiet part of the courtyard.

    During Harnel's recovery, Sakura hasn't gotten to see him once. She hasn't wanted to disturb him, but Cessie told her that he's doing better now. So she's gonna go see him... If only she never had to climb three flights of stairs. She'd have Cessie fly her up if she knew where to find her, but wandering around aimlessly looking wasn't going to accomplish much. The dryad begins the trek up the stairs and eventually makes it up, to the protest of her overburdened legs. She stops before the door to catch her breath for a moment, then starts to knock. Knock, knock-

    -Splash. Water runs down Sakura's legs, or at least that's her first impression. After a moment of shocked silence she works it out. "Oh no." Adir isn't here! He has to be here for the birth. This can't be happening now.

    A groan is heard from inside the room as Harnel stands up. He's weak and in a good deal of pain right now, so it's a few moments before he answers the door, "Oh, hello- What's wrong?" Harnel breaks off pleasantries as soon as he sees the look on Sakura's face.

    Harnel is looking a bit odd. He managed to get the dragonbone piece wrapped around one of his hands with tenser bandage, so it's now sitting on the back of his hand. At this point, about half of Harnel's body has changed back to normal and it's slowly spreading.

    At this point Sakura grits her teeth as she feels her first contraction. "Harnel, I think the baby's coming." She can't be sure, as she's never had a baby before, but everything she's heard is telling her that this is it. She freezes up, on the verge of panic and not sure what to do right now.

    Oh damn.

    That's not good.

    Harnel's mind panics for a moment. He's weak and not prepared for this! There's no way he could get Sakura into town like his is now.

    "Come on, we'll get you down into a bed and I'll get everything ready. One of the guest rooms that isn't being used right now." Harnel will try to lead her there. Considering the amount of fluid, he certainly doesn't want this happening on a bed people are going to be sleeping in.

    Harnel will look right into Sakura's eyes, a glow coming from his own, "Look at me for a moment, listen to my voice, and do what I say. Breathe deeply, iiiiiin.... out. Iiiiiiin... out. Now, if you're calmed down, I don't have the strength to get you to Inside right now; I'm barely strong enough to get myself out of bed. But I'm well trained, and I'll help you get through this, alright? So I want you to lay down and relax while I get everything ready."

    Breathe. Okay, she can do that. Just breathe. Sakura starts taking nice, big breaths. She nods after calming down a bit and lays down as instructed. She just needs to stay calm, even though nothing is going as planned and Adir isn't here and this hurts... Deep breaths.

    Once Sakura is settled, Harnel will go about retrieving what he can. It's slow going despite his haste, as he isn't feeling well, but his immediate concern is for Sakura's health.

    Towels are gotten and delivered to Sakura's room. mothers often get cold chills during contractions, so the blanket and towels will be used to keep her warm. Harnel also washes his hands thoroughly, to prevent any sort of bacteria from being on them; he doesn't have any gloves he can use for this at the moment, so that will have to do.

    Clamps, clamps, clamps... dammit, clamps are needed! Ugh, there's nothing like that around right now! Harnel will just have to use his hands, and he washes a pair of scissors thoroughly as he rushes around in preparation for the umbilical cord.

    Also Brandy. For multiple reasons.

    Finally, he'll grab a bucket as well. it's not the most ideal thing for the placenta, but it can hold water and will do what's needed. Harnel will arrive back in the guest room as soon as possible, breathing heavily.

    for the record, the dragon bone shard is taken off of his hand and attached to a bicep. He'll need both hands for this, definitely.

    [Cessie's Mind]

    Cessie? Sakura is going into labor. I'd really rather not have her give birth here, but it might be our only option. If that's what happens, I need you to contact the nearest hospital and get doctors up here to help me with this right away.
