The Elenium/Heartwarming

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • In "The Ruby Knight": Kurik acknowledging his illegitimate son Talen.

"Are you ashamed of me, Father?" Talen asked in a small voice, his face downcast.
Kurik looked at him. "No, Talen," he said, "actually, I'm not." He put his burly arm around the boy's shoulders. "This is my son, Talen," he said defiantly, "and if anybody wants to make an issue of it, I'll be more than happy to give him satisfaction and we can throw out the nonsense about the nobility and the commons not being allowed to fight each other."

    • Almost as much as that, the other knights immediately congratulate Kurik on having such an amazing son. This drives Talen into Sephrenia's arms, tears flowing.
  • The reunion of Sephrenia and Vanion at the end of Diamond Throne
  • Anytime someone says "Little mother."
  • Despite the Ham-to-Ham Combat, the Gag Boobs, and the Anything That Moves implications, Sparhawk takes a moment to make sure that Lilias is able to provide for herself and that she has been doing ok since he left.
