章 901: Smith sniff's when a gifts missed.

While Selina is riding Malthael around like a pony, Reima was speaking with the other angels present. "I'm guessing Imperius refused the invitation then." he says with an amused grin.

Itherael nods, "You've wounded his pride once, had you not allowed him to enter your arena, I fear he'd have tried to find another method of relieving his battle lust... With both our worlds at peace, he has been struggling with the new situation."

Tyrael "Indeed... Though, I never thought I'd see the day where Malthael would try to placate a mortal, let alone let them ride atop his shoulders. People can indeed change it seems."

Reima nods, "When we first met, his aura seemed dangerous and on the brink of something dark... It seems a lot lighter now, is there a reason why?"

Auriel "Malthael had spent many years staring into the Grail of Wisdom, he'd exhausted all knowledge in Heaven and spent his time in introspection. I fear he might have come to some dangerous conclusions during his time spent with the Grail, though, your insistence on us experiencing mortal things has changed him much, add to the constantly evolving knowledge at his disposal, I'd dare say he's never been more content."

Reima slowly nods, "I'm glad to hear it... Anything new happen on your end that I should know?" he asks more as a precaution than anything else, they were allied and would trade information, but only if it was specifically asked for... The Angels didn't seem to know what he'd want to know, nor did they try to work it out.

Itherael "Aside from a human kingdom rebelling against their rulers, nothing important." he shrugs, causing his metal shoulders to clink and scrape.

Reima "You guys go find somewhere to sit, I'm sure you'll find some of the people present enjoyable to speak to... Selina! We've still got more guests coming!"

Selina pouts slightly but stands from Malthaels shoulders regardless, "Thank you Malthael, that was really fun!"

Malthael "I see, mortals like riding on my shoulders hm?" he mutters to himself, coming to some conclusions that don't match up with reality.

Selina teleports next to Reima's side as the Angels walk by, the next guests being Barnock and Mathias who's currently supporting Leah.

Reima smiles at them, "Leah, seems that I've not been told that you'd awakened... How are you feeling?"

Leah "I... My mind is fuzzy, and my body hurts constantly and feels weird but.." she grips Mathias arm tighter, "I think I'm getting better."

Reima nods, "Good, it wouldn't do for you to leave poor Mathias here on his own, he barely left your bedside you know?"

Leah blushes profusely at this, sending an adoring look to Mathais who's face started reddening aswell.

Barnock laughs at their awkwardness, "Hahahaha! You're so sweet I wanna be sick! Reima! Where're the drinks! I've had enough of these two, helping them up the mountain is more than my fair share of responsibility!"

Reima gestures his head at the nearby gazebo stocked to the brim with various drinks, he spotted Kuretz and Zoltan picking through them aswell but didn't bother to say anything.

The barbarian pats him on the shoulder and wishes Selina a Happy Birthday before stomping over there, sounds of a dwarf, prospect, and barbarian becoming "Jolly" with one another echoing over the mountain.

Reima "There's some specially designed seats over there, you can rest your head and relax Leah, it isn't one of those annoying social events so just relax and do as you please. Your mere presence alone is enough for my daughter, though, I'd be thankful if you took the time to humour her, she did risk her life to save you after all." he adds.

Leah nods and looks to Selina "My young saviour, thank you for all you've done for me." she says, attempting a bow but almost stumbling before Mathias catches her.

Selina "Go sit Leah! I won't bother you if your still feeling sick!"

Mathias nods at her, "Come see us later Selina, Happy Birthday." he says, helping Leah over to the seating.

Selina "Daaad, how many more people are coming?" she asks, standing like this for so long is making her legs ache.

Reima "We're almost done... Nerissa should be here soon, you wouldn't wanna be rude to her would you?"

Selina quickly shakes her head, "No!"

*Thud, Thud, Thud*

The shuddering of the earth beneath them signalled the next arrivals... Coaugh, Andre, and Vamos all arrived together. The blacksmiths didn't get out much due to how enthusiastic they were with their work, but he managed to get them out for Selina's birthday... Each of them was rather taken with his daughter, they'd watched her grow up from a babe, use the weapons they created for her and began to see her as a surrogate granddaughter, this was compounded by the fact that all of them were infertile.

Vamos "Greetin's! Bah, no need to stand on ceremony with us, we're just simple blacksmiths after all!" he says, extending his skeletal had and patting Selina's head.

Selina "Uncle Vamos, you came!"

Vamos "Of course I did! Wouldn't miss the chance of you unwrapping what I made for yer'." he says, causing the girl to vibrate in excitement, already having guessed what kind of gift he'd sent.

Andre "Ignore that bag of bones lass, my gift will definitely be better than whatever he could make!"

Their argument continues until they almost start fighting, that is, until Coaugh himself interjects, "My gift, better." they state, causing Selina to start giggling at them.

Selina "You're all so silly! You know I'll love anything you make me!" she says, clearing the tension between everyone.

Vamos huffs, "I suppose you're right... Even if my gift is superior." he mutters quietly afterwards.

Reima "You guys can fight after the party, wouldn't want to ruin Selina's Birthday, right?" he asks, clearly warning them.

Andre and Vamos straighten and nod at him, there hadn't been many times when Reima had seriously warned them, but when he had the consequences of not heeding his warning were dire... Andre shivered at the thought of not being allowed in his forge for a week, that was like a death sentence to a smith!
