The World Is Yours

From the moment that their little ears unfurled and their beautiful eyes opened, Bowen had been regaling her children with story after story. She told them all about their father, Haiku. About how he was her hero and had saved her from a nasty woodchuck when they were just young pups. She told them that, no matter what happened in their lives, they always found their way back to one another. They always, always, always loved one another.

Protective as she was over her four darlings, Bowen may have waited just a bit longer to let them out into the world than most parents. She wanted to be sure that they were healthy and strong. Also... Bowen herself needed to heal. Pushing out three big boys and a little girl... it took a lot out of her.

Today was the day, however. The sun was shining and the ground wasn't too damp from all of the rain. She'd allowed her babes to run amok through some of the castle, but this would be their first real outing. "Remember to stay where I can see you. Be safe, my loves." Bo then pushed open the massive front doorway just enough for the five of them to head out into the courtyard. They would be stuck staying within said courtyard, but there was grass on either side, flowers, trees... They would get to be kids while mom took a little rest in the shade.
