like no king was before "All healthy," he would note as they carried on pacing toward the den site. Lucky enough for Azalea, it wasn't much further. "The adopted daughter, Arian, was the child of Natsu.. perhaps you knew him? Anyway, he was killed and the mother brought her here because Natsu spoke so highly of Epiphron. The mother died on the borders, my wife tells me she was in horrible condition. We buried her and have since taken the child in. She's only a bit older than our own pups - so it hasn't been much of a change." Incredibly enough, the girl even looked like their own children. Funny how that worked out. He would chuckle as she spoke of her two new siblings, who she seemed to think would be troublemakers. "I have a feeling my four will give me a run for my money as well, especially the girls." The girls were by far more adventurous than the boys, though Quintus wasn't far behind them on the adventuring scale. Cassius was rather a breeze, except for when he got lost and terrified - which was often. Maverick hoped he would grow more confident as he aged, but he had a feeling the young boy would always be a bit skittish. As they came into the grove of trees and shrubbery that concealed their den, Maverick would let out an "Ahoof," sound to alert his wife and children that he had returned. The kids had gotten used to coming out of the den more often, though he and Epiphron still watched them closely. "Epiphron, come and see who I've found.." he crooned with affection. The love for her he had once had had only multiplied by four times since the birth of their children. He tilted his head toward Azalea. "The den's just ahead, but we'll let them come to us - it's a bit tight in there." He could scarcely imagine how much renovation it would need in the coming weeks as the children continued to grow like hungry wildfires. {Table coded by Lu} |
