For a moment, there was silence. Then, Ren's face broke into the widest grin she had ever seen, and he launched himself at her, wrapping his arms around her and lifting her off the ground in an embrace. "Oh my gods," he breathed against her neck. "This is... this is amazing."

Tears of joy streamed down Captain Eula's face as she returned his embrace, laughing through her sobs. They stayed like that for what seemed like hours, lost in their shared joy and disbelief.

"I never thought this would be possible," Ren whispered between kisses. "But I'm glad it is. I can't wait to meet our child."

Captain Eula smiled, wiping the tears from her eyes. "Me neither," she said softly. "And who knows? Maybe one day they'll join the Knights of Favonius too... and make their own mark on this world."
