Thanatos felt sick. No, not sick to his stomach, but his heart was sick. He had yet to come see Natalya since the news hit him like a ton of bricks. Nothing else mattered to the young male. He had, for a small time, isolated, trying to find answers. Yet it seemed the gods weren't ready to offer any up. So, with a deep sigh he finally set out to find her.
It was the birthing scent that caught his attention. Where the sound was wet, but far enough away from the water it wouldn't be a danger. Still the child worried, and normally uncharacteristic he would rush to Natalya's side. Not even in a den...! His eyes were widened with worry, his heart clutching in his chest. There were puppies there yet... Helios was not yet here. The boy threw back his head, howling for his adopted father before shifting on his paws by her side, calling softly.
"Mother?" He whined softly. "Can you hear me?" She seemed out of it, and Thany was scared. The situation had broken his slowed state of mind, wakening it with adrenaline. He prayed Helios would hear soon, coming to them. To his wife and children. Thany wasn't sure he'd be any use here. |
