"It's just a normal day, Lennox." She said as she rubbed circles on his back while hugging him.

Evaline walked into Zora's room, just in time to see Lennox jump at the lightning. She silently held out her arms for her son.
(Iz dat ok?)

(Yep!)
Lennox looked up at Evaline, breathing again. He got up and hugged her, still shaking. He continued mentally telling himself to calm down, and it seemed to at least have a small effect.

Matilda, looking outside again, internally decided Whatever, and started to sneak downstairs, because she is a impulsive dumb teenager without much impulse control, and I don't know what to do.

Zora turned around and smiled at Evaline as Lennox walked over to Evaline.

Evaline smiled. "It's okay Lennox. Do you want to hear a story to take your mind off the storm?" She asked as she carried him back to the couch where Zora was sitting.

"S-Sure." Lennox pulled a purring Phos into his lap, trying to block out the sound of the thunderstorm.

Zora moved to the side to give them some space.

Evaline sat down in the middle of her kids and pulled them both close to her. "Once there was a wise king named Alexander. He ruled his land, Fairytopia(Don't judge me ok it was the first thing that came to mind.) with a wise and steady hand. One day one of his subjects came to him, telling him that invaders had sneaked into the land and were destroying everything in their path. The king went out and captured the invaders and put them in prison." She began in an upbeat and storytelling voice, attempting to get her children's attention.

Zora looked at Evaline and listened to the story, resting her head on her mother's shoulder.

Lennox listened intently, flinching at thunder but remaining silent. He pet Phos, who seemed to be pretty content to just lay in Lennox's lap and sleep. The storm didn't startle the cat in the slightest.

She darted out the door, walking around the garden to find a way out

"Several of the king's subjects and advisors told the king to kill the invaders, but the king wouldn't do it. He knew that the invaders had the potential to be good, so he set them free and had them work for him. Every single one of the invaders were amazed by the king's great mercy and love. They all worked under him faithfully, and stood by him in times of hardship and need. Because of his mercy and wisdom, the king earned a great friendship with these invaders, and because of the invaders' great respect and love of the king they were able to save the kingdom from a lot of hardships." Evaline smiled fondly at her children. "The moral of the story is this: Having mercy over those who have wronged you is not weakness, but a strong point. One of the most important qualities in a leader is mercy."
