The taste of fog in the air

Archon was very real to Venom, his presence and more so the lack thereof did much to shape who and what she was. The once tiny princess had been forced to grow up fast, she became much more serious and joy was much more difficult to spark within her. Even now, with so much time of him being gone, Venom still missed his presence. Kitsune took a moment to think as the Empress quieted, the girl deep in thought digesting what was revealed to her. Venom would never keep secrets from her children, but she wasn’t outright when it came to speaking about difficult subjects. Like her own mother.

Kitsune continued, peering up at her with those innocent sapphire eyes, and asking if she would be around when she was older. Venom grinned, Kitsune wasn’t completely without grandparents. Kiyo lived close to them, however quiet she had been. Venom assumed she was ill, that was how Anko made it seem. ”I’ll be here for you as long as I can.” She promised before leaning in to give the girl a kiss upon her brow.
