Desolate thoughts

A brow quirked upwards as Hercules declared he had been, experimenting? Helios watched as the russet boy trotted away towards another of the dips in the earth and then motioned for him to come see. Curiosity was evident upon the man’s face as he approached, peering at the hole. This one was quite a bit deeper than the one he had tripped on only moments before and confirmed Helios’ suspicion that they were his son’s handiwork.
He would listen intently at the boy spoke of his work a smile pulling upon the corners of his mouth. Part of him was amused at seeing the child so clearly proud of his work and another was the pride Helios felt upon understanding what it was he son was attempting to achieve. His son would grin up at him and Helios would turn russet gaze upon Hercules. “I think you’re doing good work.” He spoke, the pride clearly evident in his voice. Truth be told he wasn’t sure if his son’s experimentation would ever amount to anything useful but he’d never allow himself to quash his children’s curiosity.
