Ilyona's coruscating light singed his skin. Naqqash's twisted countenance was anathema to his eyes. Ahru's butterflies were swallowed by his piranhas. Ki'ivara's oddly colored aura vexed him. Kilgarrah's flaming bolt seared and cooked his aquarium, smoking a few of his children. Janin's degrading appearance within his pool lowered her expectations to the point of no return. But Xsar's appearance angered him the most. With a flourish and an explosion of fish, the mad god took to his poorly made throne, leaving behind dozens of suffering cold-blooded aquatic vertebrates. It was like a vexing of the soul, for what Aesis felt was nothing new, it was twisted and distorted but it was something strong. It burned like fire lacing his veins and creeping up his spine, his skin began to froth and foam like the waves of the sea, but all he could feel was desire; desire to hate. He was intoxicated with an emotion he had no intention of feeling at this moment, not on this day. The acidity of it was residing in his stomach waiting to be spat out of his mouth in foul and vulgar words he would be stared at for saying. Then, the near tipping point came, Zadia's arrival. Without thought or whim, her stride wasn't towards her throne, but his Fathers' own. This brought the look of disgust upon the sea gods face, and the throne room began to feel his wrath. His pets began to scream and swim erratically, his aquarium began to twist and turn into a violent miniature hurricane. Before he could turn his fury towards Zadia, Oksana took his place instead, stopping the war goddess in her tracks and proceeding to be launched across the room with a nasty sucker punch. Only the Guardian's interference, saved the two goddesses from his own getting involved. Despite his own dissatisfaction towards his father, he still maintained common decency when necessary. Their very own creator had died, and before his body, on top of his grave, she attempted to steal his throne? Did she know no respect? Aesis throne began to shake, his anger clearly made known by the swirling torrent that surrounded him. Words could not describe the actions that may have taken place if the Guardian's words hadn't brought him back to reality. The King Kraken was many things, but he was not a hypocrite. He to, would bring respect upon the territory of his father, and calm himself. The raging water that surrounded Aesis slowed to a stop, but the embers of his rage still burned within him. [i]-a peaceful conclusion-[/i] The Guardian's words replayed over and over within his head, and a frown formed upon his face. Confusion quickly set in. It was clearly apparent from the get-go that such an ending was farfetched and childish, and as an elder god, Aesis felt that his opinion should be heard: [color=LightBlue]"You are very mistaken if you truly believe such a conclusion is a plausible outcome. All of you are."[/color] he began, his words washing over the room like a rushing wave. [color=LightBlue]"The altercation,[/color] he made sweeping gesture with his hands, alluding to the very spot in which the fight began. [color=LightBlue]"proves my very point. Peace, that is not and never will be the answer here."[/color] he concluded, leaning forward in his throne. [color=LightBlue]"The the situation is no longer so clear cut, Guardian."[/color] [color=LightBlue]"Brothers."[/color] He turned to his right. [color=LightBlue]"Sisters."[/color] he turned to his left. [color=LightBlue]"What is the answer?"[/color] Aesis began to stroke his beard, thinking on such an conclusion, a violent one. The answer the clear and no doubt in the minds of all those present, once they faced reality. Once they realized they realized the reality of the situation, they would also sense the jaded motives behind them. But the answer certainly didn't involve kicking anyone out. His sea blue eyes landed upon Ahru. Her dislike and contempt for Zadia was no secret indeed, but she should have known better. It was clear who was stronger between the two, the Guardian meant little outside this room.
