Félicien would listen to Bass as he spoke, calm with everything, until one particular sentence was spoken. "I would like to ask Dart to stay behind and look after the young ones, as well as Félicien." Hearing his own name included the young man would be crestfallen, his ears lowering some. He wasn’t to fight? He wasn’t to avenge Threar?
But Bass had a point. The little ones would need comfort, assurance that they would be alright. Féli would dip his head respectfully towards Bass, giving a small, yet sad, smile. “I understand Bass. I’ll do my best to help the others who remain behind hold down the fort.” The young man would say. It would be easier if Tac was allowed to be here with him but alas she couldn’t be. He would get to his paws, dipping his head to Bass. “Consider me with you, even if I can't be on the front lines.”
