Elara just put the youngest two kids to bed for the night. Koltor is now five and Delilah is three. It's a team effort to put Helthena and Farah to bed. They needed their parents to tell stories to make them fall asleep. Helthena liked hearing stories from her parents. They've already heard stories of when they helped defeat Honerva, their childhoods, and how their lives were like before they met. Farah got curious and decided to ask Zarkon for a new story.

"Hiw did you and mommy meet and how did you know you wanted to marry her?" She asked curiously.

"Well it's a long story." Zarkon said.

"We wanna hear it!" Helthena chimes in.

"Tell them. They haven't heard this one before." Elara said to Zarkon.

"Alright." Zarkon sighed.

"Yay!!" The two girls squealed and took their usual spots to Elara's lap on the corner of the bottom bunk, yes they have a very lavish bunk bed. Zarkon sat next to them and began the story.

"Your mother and I met at a little shindig u had in the royal hall. She and I both got out of bad relationships. Your uncle brought her along with in and he introduced her to me, she was nervous and explained her nervousness to me and I took it easy on her. Ad we talked, your big brother, Lotor, who was only one, still a baby, walked to her and asked me if she was his new mommy. We were both shocked but she was a teacher so she laughed about it."

"Was he a cute baby?" Helthena asked her mother.

"Yes he was. He was so tiny and the cutest little waddle." Elara chuckled.

"After that whole gathering, I went to your uncle and mother's 27th birthday party and we talk for a little by ourselves and I asked to court her and she said yes. I was screaming inside, trust me. Your mother also beat up a bad guy and she really won me over even more with that." Zarkon continued.

"Was mommy tough?" Helthena asked.

"Very, I can still feel her play punches through my armor." Zarkon replied.

"On with the story please." Elara chuckled a little.

"After that, she and I kept seeing each other for a few months until she met my friends, the original paladins which were, King Alfor of Altea, Trigel of The Dalterion Belt, Gyrgan of Rygnerath, and Blaytz of Nalquod. She also met her best friend there too, Queen Melenor of Altea. That was the day we found she was pregnant with your older sister, Bellatrix, and Melenor was pregnant with Allura. A few weeks after that I popped the 'Will you marry me' question to your mother and she said yes. I marry her because one, I love her more than anything except Lotor at that time, two, Lotor loved her as a mother, and three, I knew she was the I wanted to spend the rest of my life with and boom 10,000 years later, we have a big family and we couldn't ask for anything else."

"Wait... Where do babies come from?" Helthena asked.

"Well you see 'Thena, when a mommy and the daddy will love each other they have a talk and then they fu-" Zarkon was silenced when Elara covered his mouth.

"When two people love each other very much they have a talk with the uh... Baby making angels and they are given a baby after a few months, right Zarkon?" Elara asked, death staring.

"Yes, that's exactly how it is." Zarkon said nervously after Elara removed her hand.

"Okay... We're tired now, goodnight mommy, goodnight daddy." Farah said. Helthena was already asleep.

Zarkon and Elara got them in their bunks, turned the lights off and left the room. Elara gave him a serious face.

"We need to have a serious conversation."

"Oh no..."
