Been There, Done That

Leo could tell that something was weighing on Lionel's mind and he was content to wait for his son to talk about it on his own accord. They sat in a peaceful silence for a few moments before Lionel finally shared the problem that was eating at him. Leo's gaze shifted to look at Lionel as he spoke, giving him a small nod of understanding. Leo felt guilty for not checking in more with Lionel and perhaps even Tiburtius after the attack. Really he hadn't even checked on the children as much as he should have. He had focused more energy into doubling up on his patrols and scouting the areas near the pack for the bear's scent than he had making sure everyone left in the wake was okay.

"I don't mean to point blame at anyone, especially anyone that's passed, but Quelt and Bright Moon shouldn't have tried to take on that bear on their own. Bright Moon wasn't a fighter and I'm sure she was already badly injured by the time Quelt arrived. Quelt was a fighter, but he was older and certainly couldn't handle a bear either. Bright Moon should have called for help the second she saw that bear. There was nothing more you could have done for them, Lionel. The more important thing is that you, and partly Tiburtius, saved those kids and kept the bear from getting to anyone else in the pack." He gently pressed his nose to Lionel's cheek for a moment, trying to comfort his son. "You can't let that eat you up like this."
