章 151: The Sisters Arrive
"Antani Avago and Ellamir Neldeth, we are looking for these adventurers."
The frost giant stood tall. It wasn't her intention to frighten the woman manning the Guild's counter, but her exposed muscles and imposing height planted fear into her heart.
"I...ugh...I don't know."
"Dastard!" The frost giant slammed the counter with a booming thud, mad not at the woman but at the situation. In a city this massive, how the hell are they going to look for their sisters?
"Alara, you are scaring the poor woman." The dark elf flashed the clerk a consoling smile. "Don't worry, she's an honorable Amazoness, Alara means you no harm."
Myreanne emerged from the counter, ready to leave from her post and call it a day. Her ears picked up on the commotion. The rather odd but familiar duo piqued her interest. An Amazoness and a dark-elf. How could Myreanne forget the guild's infamous duo of lovers?
"Are you two related to Antani and Ellamir, perhaps?" Myreanne approached.
The frost giant's dismay turned into glee, shaking the woman's arms.
"By Artemis, yes! Do you know where they are?"
In truth, Myreanne had been invited for the little get together in their new home. But that circle of friends is Yulia's, even if the lovers invited Myreanne herself, she must think of Yulia and how it would affect Magna. Ah, even if it was in the past, the complications of dating inside the guild rears its head.
Myreanne smiled, "Sure, let me give you their address. And please, give Antani's and Ellamir my congratulations on the new home."

Yulia flashed her smile before those gathered at the table, her eyes darted to Antani and Ellamir.
"You two are not going to believe this."
From Yulia right, the half-frost giant emerged. From Yulia's left, the dark elf whose semblance mirrored Ellamir a little.
"Sister!" The lovers gasped in unison.
Antani and Ellamir stood, Yulia was right, the lovers thought at first these were simply conjured up illusions. They found it hard to believe that these two would grace their home. With Maessha promising to keep an eye on Zorrla while Alara's coronation fast approached. Still the fact remains that the lovers are happy their sisters are here. Ellamir immediately handing Ellani to Stefano, she and Antani rushed to embrace their respective sisters.
"Alara!" Antani's arms wrapped around the blue giantess, smiles in both their faces at the surprise reunion. "Is that really you?"
"You know another frost giant with physique as perfect as mine, and a gorgeous face to boot?"
That haughtiness, Antani smiled assured, it is indeed her sister.
Meanwhile, the dark-elf sisters held each other in same heartwarming embrace. There was no need to question, the silence that engulfed them confirmed all they needed to know.
Ellamir and Maessha pulled from their embracing, exchanging a giggle.
"Mama, why does she look like you, is she another mama?"
Laughing at her daughter's naivety, Ellamir picked her back up.
"No, my little princess, this one is your auntie Maessha. She is Mama's sister, go on, greet your auntie for me."
Ellamir gestured for Maessha to take her niece
The adorable little dark elf child, tugged something within Maessha, a homely feeling towards the Ellani.
Carrying the Ellani in her arm, the little girl gave her aunt an innocent smile. Ah, Maessha couldn't believe Ellamir managed to make something this pure and cute!
"Hello there little Ellani, has your mother told you who I am?" Alara peeked over Maessha's shoulder, equally as moved to finally meet her niece. The initial distaste she had for Dark elves didn't even manifest.
"You are blue girl, tall blue girl!"
"No, no, no." Antani chastised, but in a gentle manner. "Same with Auntie Maessha, this is your Auntie Alara, she is not 'tall blue girl'. "
"Nah, let her call me what she wants." Alara insisted. For her niece, she would gladly wear whatever nickname she gives Alara with pride.
"Oh, another Auntie! Two Mama, two Aunties!" Ellani clapped.
"You two must be hungry, come, take and take a seat, there's plenty of food to go around!"
Antani momentarily grabbed Ellani for Maessha, tending not just to Alara but to Maessha as well. With Ellamir being her lover and all, Maessha is her sister too as far as Antani is concerned.
"Oh, no, Alara and I aren't hungry. We, ate in stalls and in taverns as we strolled around the city earlier." Although not interested in food, Maessha still took a seat right next to the two dwarves.
"Hold on, you two have been traveling together?" Ellamir squinted, her voice tainted with disbelief. Now why in the world would these two travel together?
"Yeah, fate made our paths cross as we traveled here. Alara is an excellent companion."
Although things have been cleared between Ellamir and Alara, the memory of how unsavory their first meeting had been was not burned at the back of her mind. She might be Antani's sister, but all hell would break loose if she as much touched a strand of Maessha's hair.
"She better have been."
Alara picked up on Ellamir's bloodlust along with her insinuation. Already seated next to Gloria, the frost Giant arose, returning Ellamir's unsavory glance with her own.
"The hell do you mean by that, Ellamir!?"
"What do you think I mean by it, you blue dolt!? It means you better have treated Maessha with the respect she deserved!"
"Sister, you are being unreasonable." Maessha glared at her sister. Indeed there had been a hiccup when they first met, everything bad been smooth sailing for her and Alara right after. Her sister has no right to mistreat Alara like this.
The Paladin stood, even if she wasn't in armor, her instinct to mediate kicked in. Yulia stood, her hands laid at Ellamir's chest, urging her to calm down.
"Easy now, Ellamir, we're here to celebrate, remember? Don't go stirring the waters now, especially since you and Antani haven't seen your sisters in a while."
It was all of them against Ellamir, even her very sister whom this whole commotion was for, chided Ellamir. Was she in the wrong? Ellamir found it hard to believe! Clicking her tongue in annoyance, Ellamir took her seat right next to Antani.

"THE FUCK DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE VOIDING YOUR REQUEST!? DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW LONG WE TRAVELLED JUST TO GET HERE!? ONE WHOLE FUCKING DAY!"
The goblin in armor shouted, his sword ready slash these townsfolk that didn't hold up their end of the bargain with their guild.
"The quest is cleared, somebody volunteered to clear all the insect nests!"
"WHOOOO!?"
The Goblin's shout struck terror in the hearts of the village mayor. Is this truly an adventurer and not some rabid Goblin that got ahold of an adventurer's necklace?
Rosa, the butler in a prim suit chimed in, "That is enough, Voz. You are scaring them, can you not see?" Pacifying the raging goblin, Rosa once again asked the question."Gentlemen, I believe you have the right to void requests under certain circumstances, but the ones that did this robbed us of our bounty. If you would kindly describe those that did so, please."
The Village chief scratched his head, "Well, it's a frost giant and a dark elf."
