When Empress Shalendra heard that Kyleen had been found, she started watching everything through the fires and some of it through Nylor's eyes. His own foolish actions caused his death and clearly put her daughter into more danger. After watching everything though, she wondered what it is Kyleen saw in him considering he acted out to rashly and very selfishly. With a sigh, it no longer mattered as his life faded from the connection to her.
"Fools, the lot of them. She has been right under their noses and it takes this to find her."
For most of the time since Kyleen ran off, she has always known where Kyleen was. Although there were a few times through out the years when she lost that connection. The last few months to almost a full year were one of those times, pretty much the day she started working for that King Damascus. Almost as if someone had put a veil over her. Since word did reach her that Kyleen had been found and of the events at some royal court a few days ago.. Shalandra had been probing hard to reach her daughter again. Yet, with everything she's been through, that connection was either blocked or weakened.
Nylor's death broke one of the blocks and the short few moments Kyleen was able to use her magic allowed Shalandra to pin point her location again. Now is the time to intervene it seems otherwise they will both lose her. Since Kyleen still had the ability to her magic, Shalandra was able to follow them to his chambers.
Truthfully she has been where Kyleen is now, not to this great extent, but took off a few times and refused her position. Back in those days however it was safer to run wild than it is today. Now her daughter is a slave to this weak pathetic human, although Shalandra can see that he is starting to learn.
"Your healers will not help her. Your witch has done great damage to her with that stunt of hers. Though, that isn't the only fight she is battling right now."
She paused for a moment and considered a few things. Technically she can heal Kyleen to a certain extent, could easily wake her if she chose to. Yet, she glanced over towards the King with a curious look that he couldn't see. The most she can do is heal what the witch has done.
However, dealing with what Nylor had done, that would be more tricky for her to deal with. It would be easier for him to take care of that problem through their bond together. Perhaps a little test is needed here, especially after hearing his words just now and seeing the desperation in his eyes. She smiled and continued to speak and see how things will play out.
"She needs to feel the love that only her mate can provide. Whether you truly love her or not isn't the point, I am certain as a human you can fake it easily. All humans lie about such things, it is like second nature to them. She just needs to feel it and believe it."
She walked up to the bed, placing her ghostly fingers over Kyleen's head and watched her subconsciously flinch from the touch. That made Shalandra smile, knowing that Kyleen still had some fight left within her. Though it also meant that she may not wish to return home either out of unnecessary fear. Another issue to deal with at another time, for now there were more important issues at hand.
"Nylor had a play in this fight as well.... he mated with her while he had her. He had foolish hopes and tricked her with many lies. Her body and that child now fights with his seed. Only the seed of her mate can end that fight and save her. Your seed will heal her and the child."
Naturally she didn't tell him the full truth, Nylor is already dead so all the blame can easily go to him. If he knew Kyleen did it willingly, he would most likely be upset and punish her more. At least, that is how Shalandra saw it. Soon, she began to walk away and fade before pausing to look back at him with a smile.
"Oh and a little trick for you.. A hot bath will wake her... If she remains unconscious for much longer, it will be more difficult for both of you."
With that, the Empress faded from sight to let him decide what his next step will be.
