Dayton would feel his heart go out to the child who seemed to take simple delight in his name. Joys like that were not meant to be erased by grief. But that was what was happening, he could see, as the boy let his mismatched irises be clouded over. He shared the tragedy of his life story. The plague that so many in Tortuga had faced had also spread to the pack that this pup once knew. Except no cure was discovered for them, and everyone was lost to the illness. Aeolus was an orphan. It was as though Dayton was having his heart broken all over again. As if that was possible! He breathed heavily for a moment, sharing the grief with this boy. But no tears came, and soon he regained his composure. This poor creature needed a home. He needed a family. Maybe... "Aeolus, I'm sorry to hear what you have been through. But may I ask, do you have any friends? Any place to call home?" There was a new and exciting idea stirring inside of Dayton, and he wasn't sure what to make of it yet. "SPEECH" |
