While Tyra and Aunt Ely enjoyed some time playing with and watching baby Coreth, a knock came at the door. It was Daddy, and upon seeing him she ran to him, hugging his as soon as she could. Daddy picked her up into the air, hugging her tight as if he'd missed her for so long, but something about Daddy that day made her sad. She leaned back to look at her daddy, her warm smile and beautiful violet eyes hoping to earn her some of her daddy's affection, but Daddy only smiled back, something lingering in his eyes the young girl was not yet able to understand. "Thanks Ely... I hope she wasn't much trouble." Aunt Ely smiled and thanked Shiff for the time, and told Shiff that Val had gone off on business. Tyra could almost sense the fear the ripped through her Daddy, and Tyra frowned and hugged him, hoping to comfort her Daddy. "Whats wong Daddy..." Daddy smiled at Tyra and then Aunt Ely. "I'll see you around Elohanna... Say goodbye sweety..." Tyra waved and smiled at her Aunt and uttered a warm "Buh-Bye." Little did Tyra know it would be the last time she would see her Aunt for a long time.

Upon exiting Aunt Ely's house, Tyra saw Grampa and Uncle Sam sitting on Two horses, Daddy's Shadow tied up along side. "Tyra... We are going on a trip, okay? Daddy is bringing you and Grampa and Uncle Sam to see where Mommy and Daddy got Married..." He sits Tyra on Shadow's neck. "Hold on, sweety..." Daddy steps up onto Shadow behind Tyra, slipping his arm around her to keep her close, and Tyra snuggled back against her father, hoping nothing was wrong.

They rode for day's, stopping in Port Hempstead to rest a few hours at the Scamp's Mug, then taking the long voyage by see to Mariner's Hold to rest at the Weary Traveller. There, while Tyra was supposed to be sleeping, she crawled off her futon, stood shakily onto her little feet, and stumbled through the dark to the door of the room she was in, partially open to let in some light from the main hall. Creaking the door open slowly, she cried out softly for her father. "Daddy... I'm firsty... Can I hab some juice, pwea-" She stopped mid sentence when she saw her father in his armor, something she had never done before. It scared her, the bloody red of the Adamantium, and the fierce visage of a mighty dragon across his chest, its talons gripping a bleeding Golden heart, and she stood rooted in fear. Had she not known the kind face that sat upon the face of the fierce figure of her father, she would have screamed. But she did not. She just stood their, watching. "Quill, I need to get my family to safety tomorrow... I've already waited to long, and I saw someone clad in black robes stalking my home in Fort Llast. I can't wait any longer..." The man Daddy was talking to was funny looking, about a foot shorter then her father, wearing a dark outfit. He had pointy ears like Aunt Ely, but something seemed wild about him. He noded at Daddy and turned to smile at Tyra, drawing her fathers attention to her. Daddy frowned only slightly before walking over to pick up Tyra and hold her as Tyra asked, "Where Mommy..." Daddy simply responded, "I'm gonna go get here right now... you go with Mister Quill here along with Grampa and Uncle Sam and Daddy and Mommy will he back soon..."

The next day Tyra, Grampa and Uncle Sam arrived in Stone early the next morning, but still Mommy and Daddy had not come back. Mister Quill brought them into a large underground cave, filled with shiney gems and light that made Tyra almost forget that she missed her mommy and Daddy very much.

Hour's went by as Tyra sat in an out-of-the-way room in the cave with a funny looking small person that constantly made sure Tyra didn't touch any of the fun looking glowy things all around. Then she heard someone call for the funny-man, and Tyra was led back into the big cave. There was mommy and Daddy. She ran over to Daddy, she had been so scared and she wanted him to hold her, but Daddy was not to stay with Tyra. Giving Tyra a large purple cloak, and the promise to see her whenever she hid beneath it, Daddy left Tyra and Mommy in the cave to be led down below the ground.
