Nyxara
I do not like that I am so emotionally sensitive about everything since I arrived here. My tight grip onAspen's hand would not relax. I was scared that if I did, the world would fall out from under me. The moment I realized the words coming out of Aspen's mouth were not his, it felt like the world held its breath.
Only the spirits of my dead family from Earth could know such things. They don't blame me for the accident. I felt them as Aspen spoke. Their love, longing, and hope came through loud and clear. I feel like I got their blessing to truly let go of the past and fully set down roots in this life. No more looking back because I can't let go.
Aspen does not rush me. We just hold hands, cooling down from our intense workout. With an internal chuckle, I think to myself, If I have to move so much in every session, I'm going to be so toned and fit I won't be able to recognize myself soon. Luckily, I felt well-stretched—no need to burn another restoration spell from today's quota.
Turning my head to look at Aspen, I think the warning he and Lux have been giving me about Keir should be applied to them. This is day one, session two, and I already feel like a new woman. I feel myself slowly reshaping, coming into alignment, and it feels so right. I bet I've increased my sync ratio again. And since I started out unaligned, I couldn't tell how bad it was, but today alone, I can feel I did some significant shifting. "Since we got more time for our session, what are we going to do next?" I asked.
"I should check what your health stats and sync ratio are so we have something of a baseline to work from." Aspen responds when he sits up. He pulls his glasses and tablet out of the air, then offers his hand for me to take. Taking his hand, I felt a sonar-like pulse go through my body.
"Your essence system is looking better. It looks like some of the knots have dissolved or loosened up. Your body is healing well. Soon your healing rate should be restored to where it once was, and you will heal faster." Another pulse goes through my body. This time, my mind tingles in response.
"Your mind is tender, but that is to be expected. Be kind to yourself today and tomorrow. Let's get a sensor reading just to confirm what I'm sensing." He uses another Air sigil to pull the sensor machine over to us, then places the pads on me. After a few minutes of letting it process the readings, he shared the results.
"Your alignment is now a stable 55%. This is good. As you root yourself in who you are more, the higher your ratio will get. Once you reach 80%, we will commence the ritual, which should completely anchor your soul to your body. After the ritual, you will still have adequate time to adjust to the retrieved memories, finish catching up academically with your peers, and make sure your foundation is ready to continue your ascension."
Not taking his eyes from his tablet, he summons my notebook and pen using Air. "For your own personal notes, here is a quick plan recap: your lessons are to give your mind the foundation it needs to bridge the gap between your body and your soul. Once you reach 80% sync rate, we will perform the ritual. After the ritual, you will consolidate and refine until it's time to go show those other students what being elite looks like. Just remember, at any point you want to change the plan, let us know, and we will adjust. Now, do you have any questions for me?"
Before I could respond, his phone buzzed. A moment later, mine did too. Our eyes met in confusion, and we both grabbed our phones. It must be really important for them to interrupt our therapy session. Since we were already up, Aspen led us over to a pair of bean bags in another corner of the room. He had prepared some milk and cookies for us, apparently anticipating our need for snacks by the end of our session. We split a cookie since they were plate-sized before opening the Ajei Household app to see what was so important that our phones hadn't stopped vibrating.
I immediately realized I've been added to a group chat with my immediate family. Upon seeing the urgent message, I'm happy I wasn't eating or drinking anything yet. I would have spewed it out laughing.

WarKing42: Aspen, you can't ask us to rearrange the schedule then ghost us. 😡 Is everything okay? Do we need to turn the one-on-one session into a group therapy session? Do we need to get another therapist in there so you can be a member of the session and not the facilitator? Hello? Why aren't you saying anything? 😫
WarKing42: Dragonfly, are you okay? 😩 Do we need to come to you?! Why isn't anyone answering over there? 😩 Since you are in the medical wing clinic, I'm guessing if there was a medical emergency, I would know. But I know nothing, so should I assume everything is okay? 🤔
WarKing42: Ma Mama Ma Mama Nimra, do you know anything?😒 Did I get left behind again? Am I the only one left out? 🥺
Nimra'sThickThighs: Nyx and Aspen are probably in the middle of their session. We can… why is this my chat name? Nyota!?
DisChaosDick: I did it, but it wasn't my idea. Speak to your other mate about the why. I just follow my Patriarch's will.
Nimra'sThickThighs has changed their name to QueenNimra
QueenNimra: Mal?!
SeaDoctor13: 😳
AjeiScion: 🫠
WarKing42: 🫣
Nyxara has changed their name to DreamMaestro03
DreamMaestro03: 🤣 🤣 🤣
DaddyAjei: 🤦🏽 I didn't tell him to do it in this chat.
DaddyAjei changed his name to Korran🗡️
Korran🗡️: Change your name, Nyota. 🙄 You can't keep that name in a chat with our kids.
DisChaosDick: Why not? They aren't kids. They are adults. They know we be up to freaky shit. I consider this just treating them like adults.
SeaDoctor13: 🙉
AjeiScion: 🙈
WarKing42: 😩but we pretend we don't know. We pretend with all our might.😫
DreamMaestro03:🙊😂🤣 I'm not sure how I should feel about this new knowledge I did not know before. Nimra…I got questions.
Korran🗡️: No, you do not have questions. 🙅🏾♂️ My Emberling does not have questions about …. that
QueenNimra: We will talk later, dear.
Korran🗡️: No, no talking later. What does she need to know? She is never going to get mated. She will just live out the rest of her days with us.
DisChaosDick has changed their name to ChaosKing00
ChaosKing00: Ummm, no she isn't. 🙂↔️ None of them are. As soon as they find their mates, we will build them their own residences on the complex. We agreed. No takebacks. I want to be free again. YOU PROMISED!!!🤬
DreamMaestro03: When you say free… what exactly
SeaDoctor13: Do🙅🏾♂️
AjeiScion: Not🙅🏾♂️
WarKing42: Engage!🙅🏾♂️
ChaosKing00: I want to 🏃🏻 run free where ever I want without worrying about my offspring seeing my dick flapping in the halls.
SeaDoctor13, AjeiScion, WarKing42, Korran🗡️: 🤦🏽
QueenNimra & DreamMaestro03: 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Korran🗡️: I'm ending this conversation here before your Azrail drags us further into his madness. Keir's original concern has been addressed. Aspen and Nyx are fine and should be finishing up their session soon.
Korran🗡️: All is well for your session to end soon, yes?
SeaDoctor13: Yes, we are just wrapping up now. Moonbeam will be on her way to Keir in the next 15 minutes.
Korran🗡️: Good. The rest of us will get to lay eyes on her personally later. Everyone, get back to what you were doing before this.
Everyone: 🫡yes sir, patriarch
Korran🗡️: 🤦🏽you all are crazy
Everyone:😘🥰😍
Korran🗡️: I love you all too.🫶🏽
