It felt as if the deepest nightmares in the far recesses of his mind had dredged forward into his daughter. Not only had she been jealous, thinking he favored one daughter over another, but she... lusted over him? The color drained from K'yohko's form, all semblance of fury gone and replaced with an unreadable wall. How could it have happened? The entire dismaying prospect baffled the Nuhn. How could it of happened like this?
Almost repulsed by the nightmare that was now swirling as an unfathomably reality, K'yohko pulled back from K'nahli, stepping almost clumsily away and in quick effort to put space between them. A single word repeated through his mind, feeding in on itself and working his insides to a panicked boil. How? His face showed nothing. His body showed nothing. As if in defense to this news, any sort of emotion he could normally display in any small capacity seemed to completely stop.
"We will never speak of this again. The words were quiet, giving away some of his dismay but nothing as compared to the turmoil twisting his gut. K'yohko kept his eyes firmly away from K'nahli, refusing to even look on her. There were no other words, no opportunity to say another word before K'yohko dismissed himself from her entirely. He turned his back and stepped briskly away, unwilling to listen to anything else she might of had to say, unwilling to even look into her eyes or at her face.
K'yohko's feelings were mixed up. Unable to pick apart any singular emotion, it was all he could do to simply walk away. He continued that walk, seeking some shelter, when his eyes picked up a familiar aura. An aura that felt as much in despair as his own. K'luha. The huntress was just in his view, and luckily it was quite a ways from where he'd left his daughter laying. As if K'luha might make some ward to hold K'nahli off if she wanted to chase him down, he walked briskly to her side before sitting down.
K'luha lifted her head slowly as a warm body sat down. Her face was drained, unhappy looking as the days after her son's death.
"K'yohko..." She muttered quietly before turning her head away from his form. K'yohko looked to her nervously, glancing back behind himself as if to make sure K'nahli was away and not following.
"K'luha." He replied quietly, his voice ever so faintly trembling.
"It's been a while K'yohko..."
