Everything had begun to happen rather rapidly. Loccian insisted he needed to help, that she couldn't do this on her own. Though he had witnessed Silent given birth before, he was rather clueless as to how to help. He'd never been trained in the art of healing, and their first two litters had been guided along by their pack at the time. The birth of Alione had been much less easy, but only having one child had been much easier than an entire litter. Bronze couldn't help but whimper, ever so softly, as he leaned to lap tenderly at Silent's muzzle. Silent was as strong as ever -- true to her namesake, she was quiet as she delivered their babies. Eyes danced to the children as they began to wriggle free, watching them ... one ... two .. three ... and four! His heart surged, and he moved to lap tenderly at the pups, wanting their first memories to be of warmth and happiness. If children so young could feel such a thing.

She named them each, and he wanted no more than to lather them in love and affection. Brown eyes gleamed with unshed tears of joy as they wriggled, seeking their mother's side, beginning to feed greedily from her. He settled down on his belly near them, cleaning them, and ensuring their warmth and comfort. Briefly he glanced to Song, seeing her children had made it into the world as well. He couldn't help but smile.

The women would sleep, but he would remain awake, rolling to his side and letting his attention be captured by the tiny things. It was beautiful ... so beautiful, and he found himself falling in love with the four children, his heart surging with love and joy as he watched them.
