He was leaning against a pile of mortar and marble bricks wiping a sweat from his brow. " Maybe someone will show up. " He was now starting to doubt this would ever happen. Well, he should probably get back to work now. With that he turned carrying a bag of mortar under one arm and a box of marble bricks in the other.

A good friend of the angelic being, known as Jak, Khareth BlackCroft, came to help Jak, build his new home, along with several of his gypsy and dwarven friends, 10 in all. "Don't woryy Jak, we'll have this house up in no time at all" he assured him with a smile. With that Khareth and his other friends began to help Hak with his new home.

"Thanks." He turned back towards the house and began on instructing Khareth and his crew on how to finish up the training grounds.

He sent a few dwarfs to chop down some wood for the archery while he sent some gypsies to get a load of metal for him to make training swords with later.

The had the rest of them start to finish building the walls and buildings along with him.

Hitomi appeared in a pop and looked around calmly her eyes wide in suprise. She bit her lip and looked around until she saw Jak. She smiled and walked up to him slowly holding more cupcakes with chocolate frosting this time in a box so they wouldn't get messy. She looked around again but couldn't speak.

He stopped building the wall a moment and turned to look at her. "Hey. You like the new house?" He took a cupcake before he scarfed it down. " It's gonna be great. Just wait till it's finished." He went back to building the wall.

She dropped her jaw and smiled," It... it...it's ours?" She swallowed and bit her lip looking around at the progress and then at Jak.

Jak Renton

Date: 2007-08-12 17:25 EST
He nodded while he continued to work. " It still needs to be finished though. Right now I'm working on the training grounds. Our room will be the last to be finished." He placed down another brick and some mortar.

Gapes and looks at Jak," What do you want me to do?" She asked politely as one of the golems passed rather close to her. She was beginning to feel closed in with the numbers of creatures around her and swallowed nervously.

He smiled down to her from the wall. " You can either stand there and look beautiful or you can help the people settle into the tents. Either one works for me." He smiled again. " The more helpful for other people besides myself would be the tent one." With that he laid a few more bricks finishing the third wall of the training grounds.

She nodded but before she could do anything the crowd seemed to over whelm her. She swallowed and suddenly fainted.

Jak Renton

Date: 2007-08-15 03:57 EST
He instructed the golems to go help bring in the supplies while he flew down in a hurry to Hitomi. " You alright Babe?" He checked her pulse and breathing before taking her in to his tent which was the biggest and put her on his bed where she could rest.

Hitomi awoke and swallowed as she rubbed back her goose bumps. She could hear the thud of the giant's feet moving about outside the tent. She looked around and closed her eyes rubbing her temples," I'm such a weakling." She said quietly.

Jak Renton

Date: 2007-08-19 21:32 EST
He was outside directing the earth golems to put up the final wall. Seeing Hitomi wake up he waved her over. " We are now done with the training grounds." He said this as soon as he heard a rather large thud behind him. " Time for dorms." He turned back to his little work crew and directed them towards working on the dorms.

Hitomi Urameshi

Date: 2007-08-19 21:41 EST
She smiled at Jak and closed her eyes still to nervous to go out among the crowd. She closed her eyes and sighed burring her face in her knees. Swallowing she let out a light groan of frustration... She couldn't believe she fainted in front of Jak.

Jak Renton

Date: 2007-08-19 21:49 EST
He could pretty much tell what she was thinking about. " It's fine babe. Nothing to worry about." He pulled her towards him so she wouldn't be squashed by one of the golems. " How do you like our new home?"

Hitomi Urameshi

Date: 2007-08-19 21:55 EST
She looked up at him and swallowed as she looked around at the house. Her eyes went wide and she smiled biting her lip. She looked over at one of the giants as it passed and tensed up, the goose bumps slowly returning," It looks beautiful!"

Jak Renton

Date: 2007-08-19 21:56 EST
" And the training grounds were the biggest. The golems should be able to finish up the dorms soon and the library is being worked on by some friends of mine. Our bedroom will be last.

Hitomi Urameshi

Date: 2007-08-19 22:00 EST
She looked at him and bit her lip swallowing slowly," Bed... Room?" She asked looking around," What's it going to look like!?" She seemed to have forgotten the crowd in his eyes.

Jak Renton

Date: 2007-08-19 22:05 EST
"I'm not sure. Your going to be the one to design and build it." He pointed to an angel statue on top of the Grand room. " It will be directly under there." The walls for the dorms had already been built so it was just a matter of the golems holding them up while the other of the workers worked on applying mortar in the right places.

Hitomi Urameshi

Date: 2007-08-19 22:30 EST
She smiled and bit her lip," What are it's dimensions? How big is it going to be?" She seemed completely at ease but her goose bumps were still there.

Jak Renton

Date: 2007-08-19 22:47 EST
"It's all up to you. It will have as much room as you want it to." He directed the golems to help set up some floors for the dorms.

Hitomi Urameshi

She giggled and stole one of his papers from the clip bored before writing down a few things and handing it back to Jak," I want lots of blue my dearest, mixed with gold and silver." She smiled and looked up at the angel.

Jak Renton

Date: 2007-08-20 00:58 EST
He looked at the list and handed it back to her. " You will need this." He instructed the golems a bit more before another angel flew to him told him something in his ear before it flew off.

Hitomi Urameshi

Date: 2007-08-22 02:00 EST
She sat back and patted her belly before sighing," I'm getting tierd again."

Jak Renton

Date: 2007-08-22 03:40 EST
" I would be glad to take you back to the tent." He scooped her up in his arms and carried her towards the tent where he sat her down on his nice bed and headed back out to get some more work done.

as promised by Kalis-Nar, the 25 muls and 15 dwarves, showed up at Jak's construction site, with picks, shovels, hammers and chisels in hand, the work gang boss, a mul, by the name of Gronix, greeted Jak and Hitomi, and said his men were ready to start where ever Jak needed them. Each Mul and Dwarf, all of Athas, and each strongly built in stature, were skilled in the construction of houses, civil engineering projects and the like. They also appreciated the fact that Jak would be paying them in silver as it was a rare metal on Athas, and highly prized. With that Gronix and his men would begin their work, which to these men, was second nature to them, and go where Jak needed them.

Jak Renton

He greeted the Mul boss in turn and said they would be most needed working on the dorms with the golems. " Your master has given me 250,000 silver. You will have it all as soon as all of your work is finished." With that he nodded towards the dorms for them to get to work.

There was a scream as Namaris came flying into the haven along with his mother and baby sister who was sleeping in Hitomi's arms. She looked around for Jak as Namaris clapped his hands and called out," Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!"

Kalis-nar

Kalis took the time to see his friends Jak and Hitomi at the Angelic Haven, and to also see his Godson Namaris and his new Goddaughter. He gave Jak a pat on the back, and Hitomi a hug. While he stood there talking to them, he heard his godson, Namaris call out for Jak, and smiled. He spent an hour or so, asking about how the construction was going, and if Jak needed anything. Kalis also asked Hitomi what she was going to name her and Jak's newborn daughter.

He also informed his friends that Miko and his Imperial Wedding was to moved to the Obsidian Halls, as a conveneice to those who wished to attend and also because things Athas, due to Alaria, were somewhat on edge. So for security reasons the wedding and Miko's coronation would be on Rhy'din at the Halls. Kalis stayed for as long as he could, but then told his friends he would have to return to the Halls, something was wrong with Sina.

He held his arms out to his son and caught him before giving his wife a kiss and looking down to his daughter. " Things are going good Kalis." He said as he saw Kalis walk up and talked to him for a while before watching him leave.

The dorms had a small amount of work and the library was still getting books ordered in everyday. By this pace the Haven should be done in about a week or less. Maybe a few days. His own private chambers were finished and the training grounds ready to be used. Just a few more finishing touches and the Haven will be done.

The dorms were finished and the only thing left were for them to escort the people from the tents into the dorms. He headed over to them and began to usher people into their respective rooms. He handed each a card and it told how many people will be sharing their room and their room number. The dorms were 5 stories and enough to fit many many more people.

The Library had become something of a wonder. It was about 10 stories high with a grand staircase in the middle. A truly enourmous fireplace with magical flames, that would burn even when water was thrown on them, courtesy of Selo. The fireplace was by the reading area with dozens of chairs. The walls were complely filled with books of all kinds. And at the very entrance was a letter waiting. On it was simply this.

Dear mystery woman,
You are welcome to be the librarian. In this letter is a magical ring that will give you access to all parts of the library. I have put a book in here for you to also read if you so choose. And I may thank you for your time and effort you have put into coming and seeing the progress. I have caught a glimpse of you once but only a bell streaming behind you.

Sincerely,
Jak Renton
