Hayden wasn't know for his patient demeener. Which came with a lack of interest in reading, or in diplomacy, or anything that really involved alot of calculation and thought. He was an emotional man, a man who rose to any challange given to him with a hot head and a heavy right hook. So it was strange to see him in the council chambers with several heavy ledgers, and a note book.
He'd been here since 3 that morning, Seth had woken up and had taken to yelling loudly, so Hayden had taken him away, not to wake Sophia (who wasn't sleeping well in her pregnancy and the heat of Gaia) and had hushed the boy, rocking him back to sleep. Now Seth was sat in his fathers plush thrown chair at the table, and Hayden was a few away, spread out over the hard oak table. He had blood goblets in corpious amounts and had had enough coffe to wake a dead man. But the stuff was interesting.
As the castle came to life, and the servants moved around them Hayden was oblivious. It wasn't until a servant came to tell him that Eli was in the castle was his inerest in anything other than the pages before him.

"You know, Hades, if before Sophia had told me you'd left in the middle of the night, I would have been suspicious but since you had your youngest with you, I figure you've gone soft." Eli showed up, back from Spain to do a couple things back on Immortal soil. Not to mention bring his report to the King so it could be shared with the council. A boring, mundane task that was normally accompained by either beer or blood- But it was too early for the first and it looked as if his best friend had drank Gaia's supply of the second. The tall,dark vampire pulled up a chair and eased himself into it. "So, what are you reading? It doesn't look like comics to me."

"Are you calling me soft?" Hayden smirked. "You- of all people are calling me soft? Jesus Eli, you're mental - and a f**k**g hypocrit."
He shook his head and tossed the ledger across the table a little, taking another swig of the blood.

"Now, now, my liege, you know hypocrisy is a value both our fathers have lauded into us." He poured himself a goblet of wine, chuckling and scanning the ledger. "These are ancient- What's peaked your interest?"

"something my Aunt said to Sophia." Hayden half explained and in his words he showed very little interest. Whether he was curious or not was obvious in the fact that he had taken the time to find the books in the first place. hayden, as much as he told Sophia he didn't want to talk about it, now had a distinct need to know what was going on in his kingdom- he had to see what was happening behind his back before someone armed themselves with a knife and twisted it.

"Okay, Hayden, I've been in Spain. I don't know what crazy things Noelly's been on about so you're going to have to enlighten me." He thumbed through what looked like it was a journal. The righting was almost frantic. Someimes there was only a handfull of words on the page- Other times it was so miniscule, you couldn't make out some of the figures. "And here will arise a great council from the line of King. They will bring Gaia into a new age. One the Immortal King will not even be able to produce. They will reunite the lions with the lambs." He set the book down. "Huh."

"huh, exactly." Hayden said, though he shook his head, and swigged from his goblet pausing in heavy thought. "From what I can gather, Aunt Noel hadmany dreams about me as she did with dad...and some of them are desturbing- thats even before we get to the ones about my children. I mean...yeah..."

"Like what?" Eli asked, leaning forward, thumbing through pages. He'd heard of Noel's crazy visions though they had lessened over the years. "I mean, I know about the ones about Uncle T but you? The kids?"
