The pup's fearful reaction was strange to her, so used was she to viking pups who'd been raised on such stories - and far more gruesome at that. The tiny fox kit who leaped to the child's defense acted in a much more warrior-like manner, she noted approvingly, though Katja narrowed her eyes at the disrespectful little beast. "Reizend kleine biest kind," she rumbled at it. "Well you would do to hold a still tongue if you want to keep it. An empire's child needs be not fearful and must learn such... but you are no empire's child, fox."

She turned her silver eyes back to the wolf pup, Raisa's child. "It is on Jotunheim that giants survive, child, not our realm. Long ago did the Aesir assure that. As to J?rmungandr, the serpent does be a sea serpent - far unlikely is it for you to meet such, unless you swim far beyond a wolf's ability."

The appearance, and entirely false words of another of Raisa's pups cause Katja's ears to twitch in annoyance. This impudent heretic child dared question her beliefs? Did their parents teach them nothing of the proper behavior of a leader's children? She drew herself up as she stared down at him and spoke coldly, "Stories they may be, but no less are they true than stories of your birth. Could you claim it untrue, simply because remember it you do not? Do you deny the story of your mother's birth, because it was that you were not there? Do you disbelieve the story of your mother's creation of Ebony?"

She paused to let that sink in before shaking her head dismissively. "Tcha, perhaps it may be a child of this land cannot understand. But one day you will learn, son of Raisa, that it is better to not speak than to so thoughtlessly claim knowledge you have not... Ihr blut ist nicht genug, um ihnen einen prinzen zu machen."

"Speech."
