She looks at the kids. "Maybe in a few hundred years," she murmurs.

"...maybe what?"

"I'm twenty-one, I'm not interested in being a parent just yet, and it would be weird to parent someone older than I am, and I think I could handle spending a couple of centuries--oh right you don't have any de-aging magic here. My kind of magic can de-age people. I fully intend to be around for the next foreseeable ever."

"Oh. We usually know if their parents are going to get them when they're twenty."

"I'll keep that in mind."

"Do you need me for anything else?"

Sigh.

Maybe with what she got from Draconic she can get something more meaningful from looking at shrens some more.

Permalink

The Corenta house is in Corenta, which means it's in something-approaching-reasonable flying distance of the wizards she knows.

Permalink

Corenta's a long skinny country, but yes, her wizards are over there.

Permalink

Great. She needs to be teleported to the Esmaarlan shren house again.

Permalink

Sure. Pop.

"Jensal! Jensal!"
