Valerius had been there at the start for them but it still wasn't quite the way she had ever hoped her children's lives would have started. Her parent's lives had been ideal in her mind, perhaps what she had one day aspired to though of course things had gone rather differently, everything coming in a very jumbled order. Although Cecily doubted her need for a dad, Emer would be glad everyday that she had Valerius there to help her children, and help her too. All the same she would smile softly at her daughter's words. "I'm glad you have a dad too." She responded simply.
All too suddenly the topic would apparently be changed. No longer would they speak of Valerius as Cecily questioned if she could learn to hunt. It was certainly something that needed to happen at some point, though truth be told with everything that had happened and her urge to keep her children as that she hadn't actually thought about teaching them to hunt yet. She was still too small really for hunting any large prey though it probably was time to begin teaching her how to hunt so she could practice on smaller creatures.
"Yes, I guess so." She responded, the slight surprise for the sudden off-topic question being announced. And thus led to the question in Emer's mind. When did she want to start learning, right this minute or wait until morning or another time? It'd be nice to start the lessons with the three of them together, and probably a little more practical to do in the light rather than the at night anyway for a first lesson.
