Mythran's Master Of All

While they ate, Ren told Nathalia that he was moving everyone out to his county. He explained that he had been delaying for no reason, and with Princess being able to run as fast as she does, even without spells, he can be back to Aurora in only minutes.

Nathalia was saddened by the news; but, she understood his reasoning. The people he was gathering around him couldn't stay in a starter city, not without causing a lot of trouble. They talked about meeting regularly; but, since neither of them knew when Ren would be available, they pushed that idea aside.

“I'll have a mount available for Xuunah, so she can keep coming to visit.” Ren said when Nathalia said she had to go.

“That would be wonderful.” Xuunah said. “Although, I believe Nathalia has been neglecting her duties when we visit.”

Nathalia chuckled. “I only come here in the hopes to visit with you.” She said, and felt their surprise. “Both restaurants have several great cooks now, and I only supervise when I'm in the kitchen.”

“Now I feel bad about moving.” Ren said and Nathalia took his hand.

“Ren, you need to take care of your people.” Nathalia said. “Don't concern yourself with anything else.”

“But...”

“I know you love me, and you know I love you.” Nathalia kissed him, despite not being allowed public displays of affection with someone other than her betrothed. “No matter where we are, or how far apart we are... we will always be together where it counts.”

Ren took her hand and put in on his chest. “Yes, one of these days I'll figure out how to make this connection so strong, that it won't matter where we are and we will still feel each other.” He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then felt his chest grow warm. Nathalia felt it and looked down, and a white light formed around her hand.

“Wh-what are you doing?” Xuunah asked.

“I'm giving her my heart.” Ren said, and activated Soul Bind.

“NO!” Xuunah exclaimed and reached out to pull Nathalia's hand away from his chest, and the glow engulfed her hand as well. She froze as she was caught in the ability, and all three of them were encompassed with a bright glow as her pure Light was added to the effect.

A thick white beam emanated from Ren's chest and split into two. One end went to Nathalia and the other went to Xuunah. A similar beam formed beside that on Xuunah's chest and went back to Ren, then one formed on Nathalia's chest and went back to Ren. He felt something shift in his perception, and then he received a popup.
