"That's right sweetie," Isokla smiled brightly, "You be a good boy and earn your keep while 'mummy and daddy' have a little chat." She waved as he left, calling after him, "and remember to wash your hands after playing with the fish."
Shaking her head, Isokla turned to Ydalon, "So now that the 'children' are out of the way..." her tone darkened and she met his eyes with a cool gaze, "Why don't you tell me what we're really doing going to Talryr? There has to be more to it than you're letting on. And... what exactly is this family matter? Forgive me for being so forward, but..." Isokla narrowed her eyes, "There's more to what you're planning than what you're telling. If I am to be of help, I would like to know at least some of what goes on in your twisted mind. So fill me in, if you please." she paused and added, "My lord."
