Alastair:
The little giggles of a toddler are the cutest sound I have ever heard. It never crossed my mind. Children had never been a part of my thoughts. When Naloc was born, I think I was saved. Looking into the pale green eyes of my son brings me joy and as he grows so does the joy and the love. So much love. He was a handful but now there's Astra. My little princess. Three years old and already, she owns us all.
I fear for their fate. All I want is for those innocent smiles on their faces to stay that way. His time is upon us and there is no way of stopping the inevitable. Their mother and I had lived the way we pleased even when we knew the consequences. I don't want to see them suffer. I don't ever want to see the pain in her eyes in the eyes of my children.
