Hades was surprised by the hug, not really used to getting one except from his wife. He put his arms around lauralye, "I'm glad I could be of some service to you," a small smile made it to the lord of the deaths face. Shrugging, before he let go and took a step back. "Elysium is waiting for you laurlye I suggest you might not want to keep stalling for any longer." Thedas was calling out stroke for stroke, letting the sound of steel on steel take his mind off on what was held in store for him. Looking around the room, smiling slightly to himself these people would be ready for when the big fight came. He felt a hand on his shoulder, looking to his cousin Conner. "I am glad that I get to see you again, but I am also sorry for the terms I have come here by Robert." He shrugged, his chest ached longed for lauralye to be in his arms again. "Thedas my real name is Thedas I know that much cousin you are better for the throne than I am I will be the knight commander I will lead these people into battle with you beside me if you will allow it." Conner nodded, :I will allow it cousin."
