Maj listened as Adara recounted her tale, putting his little scanning tool back into his pocket. His brows knit slightly by the end. It really seemed like his friend just hadn't thought in the long term with her decisions. When considering the wandering lifestyle she'd had up to this point, it made sense that she just..... hadn't. But she needed to.

"Well. I think first things first, you need to actually settle down somewhere nice and safe for you and your kids. Specifically a village, if we can find one. If not, at least a better place than in some random clearing in the woods."

Maj begins, starting to walk around the perimeter of the area and looking at the surrounding woods as he does. If for no other reason than to have something to do while he thought and spoke. Sure, Adara's control of fire could help her handle most opponents - and it didn't sound like she'd found any yet on this planet - but there were two children in the mix now. Two extra variables. Vulnerable ones. The alchemist knew all too well how badly things could go wrong-

"Next, you need to tell the other parent. He has that right to know there's pieces of him brought to life now. He could also help with the whole 'Not living in the woods by yourself' thing. Hnnn?"

"I?" Adara looked around, considering his words. Here were two young babies in what was pretty much the middle of nowwhere. She looked down at herself, as if regarding the less-than-stellar state early Motherhood had put her in for the first time.

Majic had basically put into words all the things she hadn't bothered thinking about.

"Oh, boy...." The flame woman sank down onto a stump, head in her hands. "I really just went for it without thinking, didn't I?" She glanced over at the babies. "They're gonna need a home, they're gonna need food, friends, and....." Her mouth flew open. "They're gonna need to go to school someday, too, aren't they?"

Her shoulders fell. "And, here I am. No job, no prospects, no formal education, bad example all around. I just...wanted to be a Mama!"

At the sound of their Mother's voice, the babies stirred a little in their sleep, but didn't waken.

Adara sighed. "Majick? Do you...have a gadget or something that can make a tent or a house? Just for a little while?"

"Alright....this definitely seems to be the place...."

The alchemist muttered as he concentrated on the little hand held device he held. It sounding almost like a Geiger counter as he watched the read out on the display.

"The energy read outs here are insane..."

He walks around, careful to not step on any of the tiny odd creatures he saw running around...
