She was silent for a while, then got up.
"I need to tell the children."

"Thank you" She whispered, then took a deep breath and left the room to search for her children.
She found them in the main hall, Haley helping Tallahar to read. Victoria was sat singing to herself.

Tallahar looked up first. In truth Haley was reading and he was only pretending to learn, "Mummy!!!" Tallahar ran over. When he saw Meg's red and watery eyes, "Whats wrong?"

She picked Tallahar up and just hugged him, a few tears managed to leak out.
Haley watched from where she was sat silently, and Victoria made her way over to her mother.

She sat, still holding Tallahar tight.
"I'm sorry." She said very quietly. "You're father wont be coming back."

Haley said nothing and pulled Victoria to her. Victoria seemed like she knew what had happened.
"Tall, my baby, Your father died. He cant come back, even though he wanted to." She was dangerously close to tears again.

"But he promised...." Little Tallahar began to cry and wriggled out his mothers arms, "I want to see daddy..."
He ran towards the door into Damins arms, "I know Tall. I want to see him as well."

"Tallahar, I'm sorry. He wanted to come back." Meg said, sh had her knees drawn up, and looked like a broken doll.
Victoria buried her face into Haley, who looked very much like Meg did earlier, only Haley wasnt crying.

Haley suddenly moved, depositing Victoria onto Meg's lap and all but ran out of the room.
Meg stared after her, cncerned about her eldest daughter.
"Uncle Damin?" Victoria asked in her high, clear voice. "When is Bealor coming?"
