You're A Part Of Me

The dire brute seated himself in the sand beside his son, waiting for Cerberus to share his thoughts on the raid and their fighters. Chimera listened intently as the boy shared his insights, nodding in acceptance to each thing that he said. Despite his personal loss, he had led their wolves to victory and he realized that. "I'm glad to see how much you've grown, Cerberus," Chimera complimented. "You led us to victory and you did it well."

Legs slid forward and Chimera lay on his stomach in the warm sand. "Since you led us to victory, I'll let you decide how we'll reward our wolves." Their fighters had come out on top when invaders came to call. They deserved something to show that the leaders of their pack appreciated the efforts. "As leaders, it's our duty to show our appreciation to those that we've sworn to protect." A little lesson in leadership.

Reaching out, Chimera gave Cerberus a hearty pat on the back. "You've proven that you're capable and I'm very proud. You've solidified yourself as a future ruler of Fenmyre." Of course, the boy had the choice to accept or deny that placement at any point along the journey. There would be others that he would be training as either back up plans or support for Cerberus.
