All in the family

When Samara insisted on a trip to her side of the family Rhyme wasn’t completely certain of his confidence. He knew Samara, he loved her with every fiber of his being, but he didn’t know her family and at the least the Klein name set off red flags in his mind. Rhyme would keep any and all opinions to himself, he respected Samara and if she desired to introduce their children to their heritage he would not protest. He did wonder what might happen if he carted his brood to the borders of Fireside though. That thought was promptly shoved from his mind.

The trip wasn’t terrible, the children were mostly well behaved. Lucky for them Ruin wasn’t very big so whenever she misbehaved all Rhyme had to do was grab her by the scruff and continue walking. They did finally arrive without any real casualties and after Samara’s pep talk Rhyme lifted himself to his full height and also gave each child a look to back up their mother. The last thing he needed was one of his children to cause chaos with the wrong Ashen wolf.

”Behave, and I promise we’ll have a lot of fun on our trip.” He reminded them before lowering himself to his haunches and awaiting their escort.
