Iimiidiina sets himself down in front of the fire and sits Indian style. The five-year-old sash-clad orphan looked back casually from his spot in front of the hearth to observe the newcomer. He looks back at the fire after soaking in the surrounding conversation for a few minutes. The boy yawns and rubs his eyes.
Tysiath wakes up on the couch. As her eyes open she notices there are others in the Inn now. Sometimes she is a deep sleeper. She sits up and stretches out her arms and looks around.
SHe looks over ant notices the young boy is still here. She decides to go over to him.
"Hey, Iimiidiina. Doing okay over here?" she speaks with a soft voice as she goes to sit beside him.
The orphan looks over at the female draconian and nods. "Iish. Mooya, maasoo daagoon."
The door opened and Vuusoolta stepped inside. He was dressed in dark forrest green robes and wore a sash from right shoulder to left hip with a silver and gold wire woven emblem of a paw hanging above his heart. A muzzel of hemp and jade beads addorned his muzzel tonight. Ice blue eyes surveyed the commons and he spotted someone he ran into the alley earlier.
She smiles and nods. "So, you just sat around here th entire time?"
"Waat foo Alphrans. Nii soopree."
She slowly repeats what he says, trying to translate it to herself. "Alphran means Alpha, right?"
He nods. "Iish."
She smiles widely. "I think I'm finally starting to understand some things you say now."
Notes the lad is speaking with a draconian. Interesting, though the fact that a young one is out of the Den so late had him very concerned. He stepped behind the bar to fix two drinks. Hot chocolate.
She holds out a hand on her knee for him to hold on to see if the young boy is still afraid of her or not.
The boy looks at it a moment, then places his hand in hers. "Pahmaat?"
She still has no idea what he is saying, so she plays along with it and nods. Although, she does not know if she is answering it right. She just wants to do something so she does not upset him again by trying to figure out what it means.
Soon the hot chocolate was ready. He added two personal touches to the cocoa. A dab of orange honey and some green mini marshmellows. Lupis be damned to the one who introduced the first Lupinossai to marshmellows, but lupes seemed to love them. Taking the two cups, he walks slowly for the hearth.
He smiles, then looks back into the fire, completely unaware of the Alpha's presence.
She does not really notice another is coming to the hearth. She just continues to look at the small boy and smiles. She enjoys hanging around little ones, reminding her a lot when she was young.
Quietly walks up to the Hearth and kneels with grace and ease of a well toned warrior that knew how to dance as well. "Miinoa swii sem fiigoo choolaat?"
The orphan looks over and see his Alpha. He looks at the cups and licks his muzzle, then nods. "Iish, Alphrans. Peesee."
She looks over at the other Lupinossai. She tries to understand what he says, too, but not much luck. She waves her other hand that isn't being held by the young boy to greet him. "Hello there."
"Evening."
He holds out a hand.
She sighs in relief and laughs a little bit, relieved that he can speak the common unlike the little boy. "Oh, good you can speak common. I was worried I would have to start guessing and trying to understand what you were going to say....are you his father?"
The boy shakes his head. "Nii. Yiim alphrans."
Vuu started to chuckle some making a few windows rattle. "No. But we are of the same race. I am his alpha. He speaks Lupesh, our native tongue. He's one of our many orphans in the Den."
The boy holds out his paw for the cup.
He did place the hot cup in bows paws with care. "Caalee miinoa. Fiigoo choolaat." he told Iimiidiina.
The boy nods, then takes a slow sip, relishing in the mint marshmellows.
"Ohh, I see." She nervously stares at the windows and what they do. After staring at the windows, she bows her head to him in respect. "It is nice to meet a Alpha of any kind."
"Mooya, Alphrans."
"I am honored to meet you as well." a glance to Iimiidiina and he smiled. "Wiicoo."
"You are?" She tilts her head a bit confused. "I am not of power, authority, or wisdom though. Why would you be?"
Iimiidiina blinks, then looks at the windows. He looks back at the Alpha and whispers. "Alphrans, oom caa doo taat too!"
"Power, authority, and wisdom is not what makes a person special. It's what is iinsii tii tahm." he tapped his chest where his heart is.
She nods at him. "Well, I guess my kind think a little otherwise sometimes. And it is very unfortunate....I'm sorry, but I should have good manners. May I know your name? Mine is Tysiath."
"Alphrans." The boy tugs on Vuu's sleeve.
A look to Iimiidiina. He recalled the question. "Iish. Stroom vuu." A look to Tysiath. "I am Vuusoolta Wolf, Den Alpha of the Rhydin Den, and son of Fleetian Wolf, at your service." he gave a low bow.
She smiles at him. "It is nice to meet you, Vuusoolta Wolf. " She thinks for a moment, and realizes it sounds familiar. "Wait...don't you have something to do with Verbosk?"
"Yes. I believe his word for me is Bromisk."
The boy shakes his head. Clearly, the orphan thought Vuu was jumping to conclusions. "Nii, nii. Alphrans, oom doo shaam taan ahs yom."
"Bromisk...yes, I remember now he calls you his master for teaching. He mentioned to me it before. What exactly do you teach him?"
"I simply teach him how to keep his emotions in check." hearing Iimiidiina, he nodded to him.
"Maybe that is why he had forgiven me recently then. he was trying to kill me at first. Thank you. " She bows her head to him again.
"Glad my lessons are having some effect. Though he has recently suffered from a bit of shock over some news. he may be a little off."
She brings her head back up and nods. "Well, once I see him again maybe I can comfort him now that he and I are friends. Hopefully that will ease his shocked mind on whatever happened."
Vuu nodded.
The boy sips at his hot chocolate silently.
"Would you like to learn Lupesh?" he asked Tysiath.
"Learning a third language...sounds rough, but I am willing to give it a try." She smiles happily
Vuu finally took a sip of his cooled cocoa. The minty chocolate was perfect. "It is mostly vowl sounds for those of us lacking human lips.
The nods. "Lupesh eesh."
She grins. "You should see how long it took me to learn the common language. I had a father that would whap me upside the head until I got things right."
Vuu simply grinned. "With lupesh, we don't hit you. you just might say something completely different than what you intended."
The boy casually fidgets with his front cover.
"Oh, I've had that happen. Recently what Verbosk tried to kill me over was a simple misunderstanding, and he was not wanting to know it was a mistake. I'm not going to have to deal with any of that am I?" She now has a concerned look on her face.
::the once dakini pushed open the front door and slipped inside:::
"No. We have a kinder outlook on people learning new things. In fact, the first sentence we would teach you is Oom riidii lupesh. It means I'm learning lupesh."
"Oom...riidii...lupesh..." She repeats it a few times. "Oh, that is great news then. I feel very relieved now." She smiles, then looks at the young boy to see what he is doing.
He is not doing much, just playing with the flap of his sash.
"If you say something that makes someone look displeased, use that sentence and they will forgive you which is foomen."
She looks back up at him. "Foomen? That means forgive?" She tries to make sure she is understanding correctly.
Vuu gives Iimiidiina a calming pet on the head. "Yes. Foomen is forgive."
She smiles. "Oh, okay. Umm, what exactly means pahmaat?"
::::she looked over the commons and saw several strangers who got wary but respectful nods, some who were acquaintances who got small careful smiles and nods of the head, and then those she knew who got larger smiles and a small wave of the hand, when she saw the youngling she had taken into her lap earlier she scooted over to the hearth with a beaming smile and a happily skittering gait::::
He smiles over at the Alpha.
Iimii! Vuusoolta....Tys! :::::she was practically hopping from foot to foot, she didn't know who to hug first:::
"Pahmaat is pack mate or friend. Oohmarah Sita." Vuu greeted her.
She nods at Vuusoolta and then sees Sitalkis come over. "Hey, sita!"
"Oohmarah, Sita!" The child offers a wave to his friend.
Greetings Vuusoolta! hello again Tysiath friend......ooh.....oohmarah iimii! ::::she leaned in to smooch the youngling's forehead:::
Acting like a little kid, he grimaced and wiped his forehead. "Ew! Aash kiimii!"
"I am teaching Tysiath some of our vuum Lupesh."
She giggles at what Sita and Iimii do. "So, Oohmarah is a greeting, yes?"
Vuu shook his head for a moment from the daze. "Oohmara is evening. Yes a greeting."
"Ohh, okay. The language is surely interesting, and much more easy to learn than the common."
:::she frowned slightly at the reaction:::: would Iimii rather have huggings from sita?
"Iish, peesee."
Vuu grinned. "Yes. Quite."
The boy smiles and hugged the temple dancer.
:::she let go the child eventually and sat down next to him on the floor, murmuring:::: has Iimii been well since sita last saw him?
The boy nods. "Iish."
He took another sip of mint cocoa, his mind seemed to be thinking on a few things.
:::she reached out to pet and stroke the youngling lupe's fur and nodded:::: sita is glad that iimii was well.
"You know Verbosk and I speak in similar language, but some words are different. Is the Lupesh language anything like that?"
"Ah. You two have different dialects or variations of the language. There is some variation, but mostly it is only spoken by the mages and very old elders."
The boy looks at the Den Alpha. "Alphran? Hahma waakaa fiim fiis oohmaara?"
"Yes, we do. It is mainly because we are from different tribes."
"Is there any place or something or someone I can talk to learn more of the language from?"
"True Tysiath. Most of our tribes in the Den have been unified. Yes, you can come to the Den. It is about two miles outside of Rhydin. I have a school being set up so all miinoa, children, in the Den can be taught things. Even adults. I believe my father, mother, and step sister can teach as well as their common is quiet good."
"Oh, that's nice. I have never seen the den before, though. What direction outside of Rhydin?"
"South I believe."
"Thank you. I will visit your den soon. I have met Ammy, though. Do you know her?"
"She is my step mother. Would you like something to drink, Sita?"
"Wow..." She is surprised she met a relative of the alpha. "She is very nice. I think she and I are becoming friends now."
:::the once dakini saw the unclothed lady walking across the room and remembered what she had learned about mortal customs, so she hopped up...scurried after the woman and called to her:::: stranger lady, need you help? sita would be happy to apparate clothings for you!
He looks at Vuu. "Alphrans?"
"That is good. She can use friends." a glance to Iimiidiina. "Iish, Iimiidiina?"
"Weem oom nii coom? Weem miituu vuu stroom, leek yoms?"
:::she smiled gently at the nixie? and nodded her head::: sita can perform small magics with the substance of the aether.....she willl.......craft clothings for you, yes?
:::she took the broken off consent as her cue, opened one hand and a small stream of aetherial energy flowed from her to curl and waft around the nixie, and suddenly she was wearing a silken dress the hue the once dakini thought she had been told to make it....jasper.:::
::::she smiled happily at her mission accomplished and scampered back towards the hearth, that is until she saw the tall, possibly spooky new stranger man who had just appeared at the hearth, and she skidded to a stop before she careened into him:::
"So, is Verbosk rather a handful to teach?" She smirks at Vuusoolta.
Vuu thought about those questions for a moment. "Mowa eesh ees oom mentroa iina yom miinoa. Yom niisk iit sproo mentroa iit vaas stroom."
"Verbosk has his moments, but a steady, patient teacher just like a river, wears away the densest stone."
::::when the definitely spooky stranger left the hearth, she scooted back to her previous spot, sitting on the floor next to the fire and her friends:::
She nods. "Well, I thank you again. When he attacked me it must have been before your teachings. You are a real life saver, Vuusoolta Wolf."
"I wouldn't call me exactly a life saver." he didn't elaborate on that. "Thank you anyways. Yes, his attack on you has been used for many examples in my teachings for him."
She looks at him curiosuly now. "You knew he attacked me?"
"Iish. Yes. One lesson for him was to learn to recognize anger and stop the reaction to it. I asked him for a personal example of being angry and reacting without thinking."
:::she reached her hands out for Iimii and patted her lap, as she had before:::: would iimii like more huggings and grooming from sita?
Vuu looked to Sita for a moment. "You seem to have a way with young ones."
The boy looks over and nods. He slides over into Sita's lap
"Ohh..." She thinks about when Verbosk had viciously attacked her. She looks at Iimii. "I think Iimiidiina is still trying to get use to me. My apperances are apparently a bit frightening."
::::she sighed happily and started combing her fingers thru Iimii's fur, nuzzled the top of his head, and murmured back to Vuu::::: when sita was dakini true, part of her duty was to ward younglings all......now that she is nearly mortal, she wishes for the gift of the generation of life......yet she is not fully mortal, nor does she have mate.....therefore, to care for younglings such as this is gift enough.
"I see." Vuu said hearing Sita. A look to Tysiath. "Iimiidiina is rare for young lupes. We normally don't like them venturing out so young."
The boy blushes.
"He is like my step sister. A wanderer."
"Good thing I'm not aggressive." She smiles back at Vuusoolta. " I don't think I could ever hurt a youngling or hatchling, though. Especially him. He's just so cute!" She looks back at Iimiidiina as she calls him cute. She has a big smile on her face now.
Vuu supresses a laugh hearing Tysiath and sips more cocoa.
"Do you have a mate Tysiath?"
::::she was currently grooming Iimii and crooning what might have been a teaching song at him:::
"No, I don't. At least not yet. There is a male that has recently become interested in me,though. His name is Kirm'tal. Do you know him?"
The boy rests his head against Sita's chest.
"Nii. No." Vuu said softly. A claw rubbed at the hemp and jade beaded muzzel.
:::she shifted a teensy bit to make things more comfortable for both of them, then murmured more of the song::::: when skies are light....it is safe for flight...when skys are dark.....warnings hark.
-She pads up the stairs and towards the door of the Inn, her paw skritching one her ears before finally she steps in, a small yawn on her muzzle.-
"Oh. He is kind of like me, though a little different looking. He seems nice and everything and keeps trying to impress me."
"Alphrans?"
"I see. Do you know how he treats others?"
"Iish Iimiidiina?"
-She paused, spotting two of her kin? at the Hearth and moving towards them.-
She shakes her head. "No, I don't. But I am not accepting him right away. I want to see how he is. And you could say I'm in high demands of something that will impress me greatly before accepting him." She giggles.
-She paused a little outside the group, wary of what to do.-
"Seeking something large of his person, or large of wealth?"
"Cahm yom muu miituu oon mo leek yom poosaa?"
A glance to Sari. He's not seen the Lupinossai before. "Evening." he bowed his head to Sari.
Tysiath looks back and sees Sair. "Greetings." She waves a hand with a friendly smile
-She nodded her head to Vuusoolta and flopped down. A paw waves to Tysiath and then to Limiidiina. She looked a bit tired, maybe even a little lost.-
"Who are you if I may ask?"
:::she smiled at the female lupe over the head of the lupe youngling she was holding in her lap and crooning to occassionally:::
Ice blue eyes noted the tired look. "Are you okay?"
-One paw slid to her ear at the question of who she could be. Eyes wondered to Vuusoolta and she murmured.- I think.. I think I'm known as Sari? -When her head turned the sight of red fur was shown, blood red fur.-
She tilts her head, confused of the newcomer. She examines her and tries to listen to her tone. "Are you okay?"
"you're injured." Vuu noted and sat the cup down. He was soon by her inspecting the red fur with Tysiath.
-Voided like eyes looked around.- Where am I?
The boy looks over at the newcomer. "Yiim aashbuum, Alphrans?"
"You're in the Red Dragon Inn. You seem very lost."
"Iish." Vuu looked at her eyes for a moment.
::::she looked up from the youngling to look at the female lupe and murmured:::: does stranger lady need healings?
The boy slides off of Sita and goes over the wounded Lupe. "Yom noom, maasoo?"
-Eyes turned to the small Lupe, words bringing her head to a tilt, dizzy spell nearly taking her over.-
She turns her body to Sari, a worried look is on her face.
The little boy nearly panics, and he takes the females head in his small hands to support her fall. "Shoom, maasoo. Shoom. Wiit buumdah yom."
::::she dove forward to throw her body under the child and the female:::: ohh goddesss
A look to Iimiidiina. He was about to say something and noticed what Iimiidiina was doing. "Wait, Sita. Just watch." Vuu was curios about this boy.
-As Sari was laid down, blank eyes looked up at Vuusoolta and then to Limiidiina.-
:::she froze, per the alpha's order:::
Tysiath is not sure what to do or how to help. She only watches.
Iimiidiina closes his eyes, then whispers under his breath. Small furred hands run over the female, barely even touching the tops of her hairs.
Vuu just held up his paw for the others to wait. Sari didn't look in danger yet.
"Are you thirsty or anything?" she asks Sari.
-A small whimper left her lips, the question merely answered with a blank stare to Tysiath.-
The child releases a warming sensation from hands that now glow just a tiny bit, like microscopic glow-worms inhabit the tips of his hairs. The orphan is now trying to heal whatever ails the female.
Vuu's ice blue eyes narrow quite a bit as he watches like a hawk. He sees the energy at work. I knew it.
She wasn't sure if that was a yes or a no, so she gets up and goes behind the bar to get some water for her.
The boy, having run his hands over every inch of body he can get, pulls back his hands as they fade to their normal dullness. He opens his sad, gentle eyes slowly and watches to see if it worked.
She goes to the cooler and gets out a bottle of water and quickly returns back to the group and sits down near the lupinossai female. She opens the bottle and hands to Sair. "Water?"
::::the sudden appearance of the spooky stranger at the hearth had her yelping, jumping up, and for lack of a better place, running for the ladies room to hide in:::: yeeeeeeepppppp!!!!!
-Voided eyes opening wide and fill as she arched a little then rolled over. A small whine leaving her and a cough. Paws cover her ears and her head protectively for a moment as the crisis in her mind starts to wither away. The flare up of Lupanecrosis' fades and the female's mind seems to stabilize.- Huuhh? -She sits up, her head turning over the room.- Street? -Then there was water, she smacked her lips and nodded. Taking it up and taking a drink.-
"Interesting." is all he whispered.
The boy looks at the Alpha, confused.
Tysiath is frightened by the person who appeared at the hearth. She would run off, but if it was something dangerous she shouldn't leave the defenseless ones.
-As she drank the water she groped at her pocket, finding a phone and looking over it. It was on it's last bit of life. She flipped it open and dialed, taking a small breath.- Please stay charged long enough for this... -She placed it to her ear as she looked over the two Lupes and blinked.- Uhhh.
He placed a large paw on Iimiidiina's choulder and slowly brought him close in a small hug. "Goom buumda. Yom yuunoa diioo." Vuu whispered.
She looks at the phone curiously. Another mystery to her for she has never seen it before in her life. Her head tilts in the confusion
::::she crept back slowly, shame covering her face in a hot crimson blush, she had told the youngling lupe earlier that she would try to protect him, yet when she had been startled, her first reaction had been to flee, her eyes skimmed over the grouping still at the hearth, not able to meet any one being's gaze for long, head dipped with her shame:::
I don't know... -She answered to the worried voice in the other end of the phone.- I'm at the Inn... But I don't know where I've been. -She looked down at the two lupes and then blinked again.- There are Lupes here I've never seen before.
The boy blinks, not believing his own ears. "Diioo? Miituu? Nii, taat dahass."
Her paw moves down, skritching at Limiidiina in the ear.
She asks Sari with much confusion, "Umm. Who are you talking to?"
Vuu pointed to Sari who was better now. "Nii dahass."
The boy looks back, temporarily distracted.
A... A week?! -She snapped her gaze to Vuusoolta and the boy Lupe.- Street please tell me you're already on your way.. Are the kids okay? I don't know what happened.
He then returns his gaze to Vuu. "Miituu, oon diioo?"
I... I'm, I think so. I don't remember anything Street. -She whimpered, such a bad sign when she didn't remember. For good reason.-
"Iish. Diioo." Vuu was a bit surprised as well. Fleet should know that the Wolf blood line no longer held the only spark of deity powers in it."
He places a paw on his muzzle and whimpers. The truth is scaring him, badly. He only thought those of Fleetian's line could be Deities.
::::she finally worked up the courage to murmur to the stranger person made of purple smoke and fire::: Sitalkis apologizes for fleeing from your presence without knowing if you were friend or foe.....she begs your pardon? ::::and then she blinked when he vanished from the hearth, before she murmured to herself::::: sita is much of foolishness and failure this eve.....
"Nii, nii... dahaas!" The last word was said with such force that the fire inside the hearth was extinguished and nearby tables and chairs were overturned, not to mention Lupis-knows what to the people near him.
Tysiath looks at Vuusoolta with he rhead tilted with a questionaing look. "Who is she talking to, Vuusoolta Wolf? And what is in her hand if I may ask?"
Vuu was a bit dazed as he was asked two questions and the kid freaked.
-She whimpered- I wanted you to come get me.. But... If I have to.. -Ears pinned back- You better be waiting for me. -She nodded and sighed. Closing the phone.-
The burst seemed to have knocked Vuu into the nexus then back.
:::the combination of the spoken word and the imminent god energies contained in the youngling's breath washed over the once dakini and her eyes rolled up in her head as she fell to the floor:::
The boy whimpers and holds his head and muzzle in the middle of a regular crater of collapses people and furniture.
::::her form seems to shimmer and shift with aetherial energy, glowing streaks of power around her frame, which doubles, splits, rejoins, then fades back into one, and she is lying upon the floor, apparently sleeping peacefully:::
"Iimiidiina, shoom." is all Vuu could say as he tried to get to his paws. A slight glance down on most of his robes in the front were singed. Close. Very close. "Cooma. Yom goom. Yom goom." he said in a befriending tone. He didn't want the boy frightened again. Lupis it was like being home when he was 10.
The orphan cries from the shock and he collapses into Vuu.
She is not sure what to do now or how to react. She just sits silently and looks back at Sita, seeing her sleeping on the floor then looks back at the Lupinossai.
To Tysiath question before the blast. "It was a cellphone." and he noted the lupe vanished. Oh yeah, dad should really hear about this. He caught Iimiidiina. "Well at least it's very limited."
The force of his tear-shedding is still making walls shake.
"Cell...phone? What does that do?"
::::she woke up and her eyes blazed with power, joy, and glory, she rolled to her knees and bowed her head to the floor in front of Iimii::::: all praise to you, youngling godhead to be!
She looks at the upset youngling and frowns. She reaches over to gently put a hand on his shoulder to help try and comfort him.
The boy swipes his paw at the approaching hand. "Nii!"
"Godhead? What do you mean?"
"I think it is time we headed back to the Den. He will need rest and safety. Iimiidiina, soopree." he spoke above a whisper trying to knock the boy out with his own powers to keep him from more panic."
She suddenly pulls her hand away.
The boy suddenly succumbs to drowsiness, and his head rests on the Alpha's shoulder as he falls into a deep sleep.
For the love of Lupis please fall asleep. Vuu prays to the male god of Lupinossai. A deep sigh of relief washed over Vuu. He cradled the boy ease rubbing his back. "Another. we have another deity, Lupis you must be mad." Vuu whispered.
::when the child reacted, she moved instantly, flowing upwards to reach her hands for him, arms a shield and comfort for him, but....he was already asleep, she could not tell him the wonderful news of the miracle he had performed upon her:::
She over hears the whisper very faintly. "Wait. He is a what?"
A glance to Tysiath. "Lupinossai have a unique chance to be born a deity. It usually only happens in the bloodline directly descended of Lupis. The Wolf blood line has created two deities. My father and I. None other have been born before. Iimiidiina though, seems to be a rare spark of deity power. He was born outside of the usual bloodline. In essence, we have a very young god on our paws."
"A god..." She looks at the young boy in shock, her eyes are widen and mouth dropped open. She is completely speechless now.
"This means Fleet and I will need to consider training him in the ways of being a deity. Seems he has the same ability with his voice like I do."
The boy shivers in his sleep, and he curls up against the Alpha.
Vuu sent soothing warmth into the lad well familliar with the drain of the first release of power.
"Wow..." is all she says in response
:::she moved forward to slide her hands underneath and around the child also, helping to cradle and comfort him from the other side. her form fairly radiated her aetherial energies, and her face glowed with another light as well:::
The boy still trembles.
A look to the water clock. It was very late.
He whispers. Must be dreaming already. "Miiaa... Diiaa..."
"I wish there was something I could do to help him feel better."
:::she leaned in to drop gentle kisses upon the child's forehead, like a healing rain while she whispered to him:::: all is well Iimii...all is well.... you have restored and magnified Sita.....she is as she was and moreover again.... you gift her beyond words and she will serve you always.
Vuu eyed Sita as well. Seems a chain of events has occured. Hearing Iimiidiina, Vuu grimaced. "Yes, sleep. Dream of your parents."
Small furred fingers clench the sash on Vuu's back.
:::she looked up at Vuu:::: his parents....they are not with the den?
A look to Tysiath as he made ready to leave for the Den. "He just needs some sleep. Our powers drain our soul and bodies. What he did is something normally not doable until my age. His parents died in the Terror of Takhasis. He is an orphan."
"Oh no...death of parents is never good..." She is frowning much now at the thought of losing parents.
:::her face began to glow with a holy light:::: no longer....if you and he will permit it.....sita will be his mother...for now she truly may....he has restored her dakini nature, but yet, given her the gift of generation of life within.....she understands now what love truly is...and this gift she will give to him if she may.
Vuu nodded and headed for the door. "I hate to leave so soon. But my powers that make him sleep may not hold for long."
The orphan's breaths come out trembling.
"We understand, Vuusoolta Wolf. I hope everything goes well."
Blinks. "He made you pregnant?"
She looks over at Sita, getting the same impression.
:::she laughed joyfully and shook her head negatively::: noooo....but he gave her the capacity to be so!
"Canis indeed has a decendent. It makes sense now. Father and I are decendents of Lupis. Canis has now made hers known." Vuu was trembling now.
The fatherless son give a tiny smile in his deep slumber.
Vuu just bowed his head and moved into the night with the boy. This was much above his own knowledge. they must meet with fleet.
Tysiath wakes up on the couch. As her eyes open she notices there are others in the Inn now. Sometimes she is a deep sleeper. She sits up and stretches out her arms and looks around.
SHe looks over ant notices the young boy is still here. She decides to go over to him.
"Hey, Iimiidiina. Doing okay over here?" she speaks with a soft voice as she goes to sit beside him.
The orphan looks over at the female draconian and nods. "Iish. Mooya, maasoo daagoon."
The door opened and Vuusoolta stepped inside. He was dressed in dark forrest green robes and wore a sash from right shoulder to left hip with a silver and gold wire woven emblem of a paw hanging above his heart. A muzzel of hemp and jade beads addorned his muzzel tonight. Ice blue eyes surveyed the commons and he spotted someone he ran into the alley earlier.
She smiles and nods. "So, you just sat around here th entire time?"
"Waat foo Alphrans. Nii soopree."
She slowly repeats what he says, trying to translate it to herself. "Alphran means Alpha, right?"
He nods. "Iish."
She smiles widely. "I think I'm finally starting to understand some things you say now."
Notes the lad is speaking with a draconian. Interesting, though the fact that a young one is out of the Den so late had him very concerned. He stepped behind the bar to fix two drinks. Hot chocolate.
She holds out a hand on her knee for him to hold on to see if the young boy is still afraid of her or not.
The boy looks at it a moment, then places his hand in hers. "Pahmaat?"
She still has no idea what he is saying, so she plays along with it and nods. Although, she does not know if she is answering it right. She just wants to do something so she does not upset him again by trying to figure out what it means.
Soon the hot chocolate was ready. He added two personal touches to the cocoa. A dab of orange honey and some green mini marshmellows. Lupis be damned to the one who introduced the first Lupinossai to marshmellows, but lupes seemed to love them. Taking the two cups, he walks slowly for the hearth.
He smiles, then looks back into the fire, completely unaware of the Alpha's presence.
She does not really notice another is coming to the hearth. She just continues to look at the small boy and smiles. She enjoys hanging around little ones, reminding her a lot when she was young.
Quietly walks up to the Hearth and kneels with grace and ease of a well toned warrior that knew how to dance as well. "Miinoa swii sem fiigoo choolaat?"
The orphan looks over and see his Alpha. He looks at the cups and licks his muzzle, then nods. "Iish, Alphrans. Peesee."
She looks over at the other Lupinossai. She tries to understand what he says, too, but not much luck. She waves her other hand that isn't being held by the young boy to greet him. "Hello there."
"Evening."
He holds out a hand.
She sighs in relief and laughs a little bit, relieved that he can speak the common unlike the little boy. "Oh, good you can speak common. I was worried I would have to start guessing and trying to understand what you were going to say....are you his father?"
The boy shakes his head. "Nii. Yiim alphrans."
Vuu started to chuckle some making a few windows rattle. "No. But we are of the same race. I am his alpha. He speaks Lupesh, our native tongue. He's one of our many orphans in the Den."
The boy holds out his paw for the cup.
He did place the hot cup in bows paws with care. "Caalee miinoa. Fiigoo choolaat." he told Iimiidiina.
The boy nods, then takes a slow sip, relishing in the mint marshmellows.
"Ohh, I see." She nervously stares at the windows and what they do. After staring at the windows, she bows her head to him in respect. "It is nice to meet a Alpha of any kind."
"Mooya, Alphrans."
"I am honored to meet you as well." a glance to Iimiidiina and he smiled. "Wiicoo."
"You are?" She tilts her head a bit confused. "I am not of power, authority, or wisdom though. Why would you be?"
Iimiidiina blinks, then looks at the windows. He looks back at the Alpha and whispers. "Alphrans, oom caa doo taat too!"
"Power, authority, and wisdom is not what makes a person special. It's what is iinsii tii tahm." he tapped his chest where his heart is.
She nods at him. "Well, I guess my kind think a little otherwise sometimes. And it is very unfortunate....I'm sorry, but I should have good manners. May I know your name? Mine is Tysiath."
"Alphrans." The boy tugs on Vuu's sleeve.
A look to Iimiidiina. He recalled the question. "Iish. Stroom vuu." A look to Tysiath. "I am Vuusoolta Wolf, Den Alpha of the Rhydin Den, and son of Fleetian Wolf, at your service." he gave a low bow.
She smiles at him. "It is nice to meet you, Vuusoolta Wolf. " She thinks for a moment, and realizes it sounds familiar. "Wait...don't you have something to do with Verbosk?"
"Yes. I believe his word for me is Bromisk."
The boy shakes his head. Clearly, the orphan thought Vuu was jumping to conclusions. "Nii, nii. Alphrans, oom doo shaam taan ahs yom."
"Bromisk...yes, I remember now he calls you his master for teaching. He mentioned to me it before. What exactly do you teach him?"
"I simply teach him how to keep his emotions in check." hearing Iimiidiina, he nodded to him.
"Maybe that is why he had forgiven me recently then. he was trying to kill me at first. Thank you. " She bows her head to him again.
"Glad my lessons are having some effect. Though he has recently suffered from a bit of shock over some news. he may be a little off."
She brings her head back up and nods. "Well, once I see him again maybe I can comfort him now that he and I are friends. Hopefully that will ease his shocked mind on whatever happened."
Vuu nodded.
The boy sips at his hot chocolate silently.
"Would you like to learn Lupesh?" he asked Tysiath.
"Learning a third language...sounds rough, but I am willing to give it a try." She smiles happily
Vuu finally took a sip of his cooled cocoa. The minty chocolate was perfect. "It is mostly vowl sounds for those of us lacking human lips.
The nods. "Lupesh eesh."
She grins. "You should see how long it took me to learn the common language. I had a father that would whap me upside the head until I got things right."
Vuu simply grinned. "With lupesh, we don't hit you. you just might say something completely different than what you intended."
The boy casually fidgets with his front cover.
"Oh, I've had that happen. Recently what Verbosk tried to kill me over was a simple misunderstanding, and he was not wanting to know it was a mistake. I'm not going to have to deal with any of that am I?" She now has a concerned look on her face.
::the once dakini pushed open the front door and slipped inside:::
"No. We have a kinder outlook on people learning new things. In fact, the first sentence we would teach you is Oom riidii lupesh. It means I'm learning lupesh."
"Oom...riidii...lupesh..." She repeats it a few times. "Oh, that is great news then. I feel very relieved now." She smiles, then looks at the young boy to see what he is doing.
He is not doing much, just playing with the flap of his sash.
"If you say something that makes someone look displeased, use that sentence and they will forgive you which is foomen."
She looks back up at him. "Foomen? That means forgive?" She tries to make sure she is understanding correctly.
Vuu gives Iimiidiina a calming pet on the head. "Yes. Foomen is forgive."
She smiles. "Oh, okay. Umm, what exactly means pahmaat?"
::::she looked over the commons and saw several strangers who got wary but respectful nods, some who were acquaintances who got small careful smiles and nods of the head, and then those she knew who got larger smiles and a small wave of the hand, when she saw the youngling she had taken into her lap earlier she scooted over to the hearth with a beaming smile and a happily skittering gait::::
He smiles over at the Alpha.
Iimii! Vuusoolta....Tys! :::::she was practically hopping from foot to foot, she didn't know who to hug first:::
"Pahmaat is pack mate or friend. Oohmarah Sita." Vuu greeted her.
She nods at Vuusoolta and then sees Sitalkis come over. "Hey, sita!"
"Oohmarah, Sita!" The child offers a wave to his friend.
Greetings Vuusoolta! hello again Tysiath friend......ooh.....oohmarah iimii! ::::she leaned in to smooch the youngling's forehead:::
Acting like a little kid, he grimaced and wiped his forehead. "Ew! Aash kiimii!"
"I am teaching Tysiath some of our vuum Lupesh."
She giggles at what Sita and Iimii do. "So, Oohmarah is a greeting, yes?"
Vuu shook his head for a moment from the daze. "Oohmara is evening. Yes a greeting."
"Ohh, okay. The language is surely interesting, and much more easy to learn than the common."
:::she frowned slightly at the reaction:::: would Iimii rather have huggings from sita?
"Iish, peesee."
Vuu grinned. "Yes. Quite."
The boy smiles and hugged the temple dancer.
:::she let go the child eventually and sat down next to him on the floor, murmuring:::: has Iimii been well since sita last saw him?
The boy nods. "Iish."
He took another sip of mint cocoa, his mind seemed to be thinking on a few things.
:::she reached out to pet and stroke the youngling lupe's fur and nodded:::: sita is glad that iimii was well.
"You know Verbosk and I speak in similar language, but some words are different. Is the Lupesh language anything like that?"
"Ah. You two have different dialects or variations of the language. There is some variation, but mostly it is only spoken by the mages and very old elders."
The boy looks at the Den Alpha. "Alphran? Hahma waakaa fiim fiis oohmaara?"
"Yes, we do. It is mainly because we are from different tribes."
"Is there any place or something or someone I can talk to learn more of the language from?"
"True Tysiath. Most of our tribes in the Den have been unified. Yes, you can come to the Den. It is about two miles outside of Rhydin. I have a school being set up so all miinoa, children, in the Den can be taught things. Even adults. I believe my father, mother, and step sister can teach as well as their common is quiet good."
"Oh, that's nice. I have never seen the den before, though. What direction outside of Rhydin?"
"South I believe."
"Thank you. I will visit your den soon. I have met Ammy, though. Do you know her?"
"She is my step mother. Would you like something to drink, Sita?"
"Wow..." She is surprised she met a relative of the alpha. "She is very nice. I think she and I are becoming friends now."
:::the once dakini saw the unclothed lady walking across the room and remembered what she had learned about mortal customs, so she hopped up...scurried after the woman and called to her:::: stranger lady, need you help? sita would be happy to apparate clothings for you!
He looks at Vuu. "Alphrans?"
"That is good. She can use friends." a glance to Iimiidiina. "Iish, Iimiidiina?"
"Weem oom nii coom? Weem miituu vuu stroom, leek yoms?"
:::she smiled gently at the nixie? and nodded her head::: sita can perform small magics with the substance of the aether.....she willl.......craft clothings for you, yes?
:::she took the broken off consent as her cue, opened one hand and a small stream of aetherial energy flowed from her to curl and waft around the nixie, and suddenly she was wearing a silken dress the hue the once dakini thought she had been told to make it....jasper.:::
::::she smiled happily at her mission accomplished and scampered back towards the hearth, that is until she saw the tall, possibly spooky new stranger man who had just appeared at the hearth, and she skidded to a stop before she careened into him:::
"So, is Verbosk rather a handful to teach?" She smirks at Vuusoolta.
Vuu thought about those questions for a moment. "Mowa eesh ees oom mentroa iina yom miinoa. Yom niisk iit sproo mentroa iit vaas stroom."
"Verbosk has his moments, but a steady, patient teacher just like a river, wears away the densest stone."
::::when the definitely spooky stranger left the hearth, she scooted back to her previous spot, sitting on the floor next to the fire and her friends:::
She nods. "Well, I thank you again. When he attacked me it must have been before your teachings. You are a real life saver, Vuusoolta Wolf."
"I wouldn't call me exactly a life saver." he didn't elaborate on that. "Thank you anyways. Yes, his attack on you has been used for many examples in my teachings for him."
She looks at him curiosuly now. "You knew he attacked me?"
"Iish. Yes. One lesson for him was to learn to recognize anger and stop the reaction to it. I asked him for a personal example of being angry and reacting without thinking."
:::she reached her hands out for Iimii and patted her lap, as she had before:::: would iimii like more huggings and grooming from sita?
Vuu looked to Sita for a moment. "You seem to have a way with young ones."
The boy looks over and nods. He slides over into Sita's lap
"Ohh..." She thinks about when Verbosk had viciously attacked her. She looks at Iimii. "I think Iimiidiina is still trying to get use to me. My apperances are apparently a bit frightening."
::::she sighed happily and started combing her fingers thru Iimii's fur, nuzzled the top of his head, and murmured back to Vuu::::: when sita was dakini true, part of her duty was to ward younglings all......now that she is nearly mortal, she wishes for the gift of the generation of life......yet she is not fully mortal, nor does she have mate.....therefore, to care for younglings such as this is gift enough.
"I see." Vuu said hearing Sita. A look to Tysiath. "Iimiidiina is rare for young lupes. We normally don't like them venturing out so young."
The boy blushes.
"He is like my step sister. A wanderer."
"Good thing I'm not aggressive." She smiles back at Vuusoolta. " I don't think I could ever hurt a youngling or hatchling, though. Especially him. He's just so cute!" She looks back at Iimiidiina as she calls him cute. She has a big smile on her face now.
Vuu supresses a laugh hearing Tysiath and sips more cocoa.
"Do you have a mate Tysiath?"
::::she was currently grooming Iimii and crooning what might have been a teaching song at him:::
"No, I don't. At least not yet. There is a male that has recently become interested in me,though. His name is Kirm'tal. Do you know him?"
The boy rests his head against Sita's chest.
"Nii. No." Vuu said softly. A claw rubbed at the hemp and jade beaded muzzel.
:::she shifted a teensy bit to make things more comfortable for both of them, then murmured more of the song::::: when skies are light....it is safe for flight...when skys are dark.....warnings hark.
-She pads up the stairs and towards the door of the Inn, her paw skritching one her ears before finally she steps in, a small yawn on her muzzle.-
"Oh. He is kind of like me, though a little different looking. He seems nice and everything and keeps trying to impress me."
"Alphrans?"
"I see. Do you know how he treats others?"
"Iish Iimiidiina?"
-She paused, spotting two of her kin? at the Hearth and moving towards them.-
She shakes her head. "No, I don't. But I am not accepting him right away. I want to see how he is. And you could say I'm in high demands of something that will impress me greatly before accepting him." She giggles.
-She paused a little outside the group, wary of what to do.-
"Seeking something large of his person, or large of wealth?"
"Cahm yom muu miituu oon mo leek yom poosaa?"
A glance to Sari. He's not seen the Lupinossai before. "Evening." he bowed his head to Sari.
Tysiath looks back and sees Sair. "Greetings." She waves a hand with a friendly smile
-She nodded her head to Vuusoolta and flopped down. A paw waves to Tysiath and then to Limiidiina. She looked a bit tired, maybe even a little lost.-
"Who are you if I may ask?"
:::she smiled at the female lupe over the head of the lupe youngling she was holding in her lap and crooning to occassionally:::
Ice blue eyes noted the tired look. "Are you okay?"
-One paw slid to her ear at the question of who she could be. Eyes wondered to Vuusoolta and she murmured.- I think.. I think I'm known as Sari? -When her head turned the sight of red fur was shown, blood red fur.-
She tilts her head, confused of the newcomer. She examines her and tries to listen to her tone. "Are you okay?"
"you're injured." Vuu noted and sat the cup down. He was soon by her inspecting the red fur with Tysiath.
-Voided like eyes looked around.- Where am I?
The boy looks over at the newcomer. "Yiim aashbuum, Alphrans?"
"You're in the Red Dragon Inn. You seem very lost."
"Iish." Vuu looked at her eyes for a moment.
::::she looked up from the youngling to look at the female lupe and murmured:::: does stranger lady need healings?
The boy slides off of Sita and goes over the wounded Lupe. "Yom noom, maasoo?"
-Eyes turned to the small Lupe, words bringing her head to a tilt, dizzy spell nearly taking her over.-
She turns her body to Sari, a worried look is on her face.
The little boy nearly panics, and he takes the females head in his small hands to support her fall. "Shoom, maasoo. Shoom. Wiit buumdah yom."
::::she dove forward to throw her body under the child and the female:::: ohh goddesss
A look to Iimiidiina. He was about to say something and noticed what Iimiidiina was doing. "Wait, Sita. Just watch." Vuu was curios about this boy.
-As Sari was laid down, blank eyes looked up at Vuusoolta and then to Limiidiina.-
:::she froze, per the alpha's order:::
Tysiath is not sure what to do or how to help. She only watches.
Iimiidiina closes his eyes, then whispers under his breath. Small furred hands run over the female, barely even touching the tops of her hairs.
Vuu just held up his paw for the others to wait. Sari didn't look in danger yet.
"Are you thirsty or anything?" she asks Sari.
-A small whimper left her lips, the question merely answered with a blank stare to Tysiath.-
The child releases a warming sensation from hands that now glow just a tiny bit, like microscopic glow-worms inhabit the tips of his hairs. The orphan is now trying to heal whatever ails the female.
Vuu's ice blue eyes narrow quite a bit as he watches like a hawk. He sees the energy at work. I knew it.
She wasn't sure if that was a yes or a no, so she gets up and goes behind the bar to get some water for her.
The boy, having run his hands over every inch of body he can get, pulls back his hands as they fade to their normal dullness. He opens his sad, gentle eyes slowly and watches to see if it worked.
She goes to the cooler and gets out a bottle of water and quickly returns back to the group and sits down near the lupinossai female. She opens the bottle and hands to Sair. "Water?"
::::the sudden appearance of the spooky stranger at the hearth had her yelping, jumping up, and for lack of a better place, running for the ladies room to hide in:::: yeeeeeeepppppp!!!!!
-Voided eyes opening wide and fill as she arched a little then rolled over. A small whine leaving her and a cough. Paws cover her ears and her head protectively for a moment as the crisis in her mind starts to wither away. The flare up of Lupanecrosis' fades and the female's mind seems to stabilize.- Huuhh? -She sits up, her head turning over the room.- Street? -Then there was water, she smacked her lips and nodded. Taking it up and taking a drink.-
"Interesting." is all he whispered.
The boy looks at the Alpha, confused.
Tysiath is frightened by the person who appeared at the hearth. She would run off, but if it was something dangerous she shouldn't leave the defenseless ones.
-As she drank the water she groped at her pocket, finding a phone and looking over it. It was on it's last bit of life. She flipped it open and dialed, taking a small breath.- Please stay charged long enough for this... -She placed it to her ear as she looked over the two Lupes and blinked.- Uhhh.
He placed a large paw on Iimiidiina's choulder and slowly brought him close in a small hug. "Goom buumda. Yom yuunoa diioo." Vuu whispered.
She looks at the phone curiously. Another mystery to her for she has never seen it before in her life. Her head tilts in the confusion
::::she crept back slowly, shame covering her face in a hot crimson blush, she had told the youngling lupe earlier that she would try to protect him, yet when she had been startled, her first reaction had been to flee, her eyes skimmed over the grouping still at the hearth, not able to meet any one being's gaze for long, head dipped with her shame:::
I don't know... -She answered to the worried voice in the other end of the phone.- I'm at the Inn... But I don't know where I've been. -She looked down at the two lupes and then blinked again.- There are Lupes here I've never seen before.
The boy blinks, not believing his own ears. "Diioo? Miituu? Nii, taat dahass."
Her paw moves down, skritching at Limiidiina in the ear.
She asks Sari with much confusion, "Umm. Who are you talking to?"
Vuu pointed to Sari who was better now. "Nii dahass."
The boy looks back, temporarily distracted.
A... A week?! -She snapped her gaze to Vuusoolta and the boy Lupe.- Street please tell me you're already on your way.. Are the kids okay? I don't know what happened.
He then returns his gaze to Vuu. "Miituu, oon diioo?"
I... I'm, I think so. I don't remember anything Street. -She whimpered, such a bad sign when she didn't remember. For good reason.-
"Iish. Diioo." Vuu was a bit surprised as well. Fleet should know that the Wolf blood line no longer held the only spark of deity powers in it."
He places a paw on his muzzle and whimpers. The truth is scaring him, badly. He only thought those of Fleetian's line could be Deities.
::::she finally worked up the courage to murmur to the stranger person made of purple smoke and fire::: Sitalkis apologizes for fleeing from your presence without knowing if you were friend or foe.....she begs your pardon? ::::and then she blinked when he vanished from the hearth, before she murmured to herself::::: sita is much of foolishness and failure this eve.....
"Nii, nii... dahaas!" The last word was said with such force that the fire inside the hearth was extinguished and nearby tables and chairs were overturned, not to mention Lupis-knows what to the people near him.
Tysiath looks at Vuusoolta with he rhead tilted with a questionaing look. "Who is she talking to, Vuusoolta Wolf? And what is in her hand if I may ask?"
Vuu was a bit dazed as he was asked two questions and the kid freaked.
-She whimpered- I wanted you to come get me.. But... If I have to.. -Ears pinned back- You better be waiting for me. -She nodded and sighed. Closing the phone.-
The burst seemed to have knocked Vuu into the nexus then back.
:::the combination of the spoken word and the imminent god energies contained in the youngling's breath washed over the once dakini and her eyes rolled up in her head as she fell to the floor:::
The boy whimpers and holds his head and muzzle in the middle of a regular crater of collapses people and furniture.
::::her form seems to shimmer and shift with aetherial energy, glowing streaks of power around her frame, which doubles, splits, rejoins, then fades back into one, and she is lying upon the floor, apparently sleeping peacefully:::
"Iimiidiina, shoom." is all Vuu could say as he tried to get to his paws. A slight glance down on most of his robes in the front were singed. Close. Very close. "Cooma. Yom goom. Yom goom." he said in a befriending tone. He didn't want the boy frightened again. Lupis it was like being home when he was 10.
The orphan cries from the shock and he collapses into Vuu.
She is not sure what to do now or how to react. She just sits silently and looks back at Sita, seeing her sleeping on the floor then looks back at the Lupinossai.
To Tysiath question before the blast. "It was a cellphone." and he noted the lupe vanished. Oh yeah, dad should really hear about this. He caught Iimiidiina. "Well at least it's very limited."
The force of his tear-shedding is still making walls shake.
"Cell...phone? What does that do?"
::::she woke up and her eyes blazed with power, joy, and glory, she rolled to her knees and bowed her head to the floor in front of Iimii::::: all praise to you, youngling godhead to be!
She looks at the upset youngling and frowns. She reaches over to gently put a hand on his shoulder to help try and comfort him.
The boy swipes his paw at the approaching hand. "Nii!"
"Godhead? What do you mean?"
"I think it is time we headed back to the Den. He will need rest and safety. Iimiidiina, soopree." he spoke above a whisper trying to knock the boy out with his own powers to keep him from more panic."
She suddenly pulls her hand away.
The boy suddenly succumbs to drowsiness, and his head rests on the Alpha's shoulder as he falls into a deep sleep.
For the love of Lupis please fall asleep. Vuu prays to the male god of Lupinossai. A deep sigh of relief washed over Vuu. He cradled the boy ease rubbing his back. "Another. we have another deity, Lupis you must be mad." Vuu whispered.
::when the child reacted, she moved instantly, flowing upwards to reach her hands for him, arms a shield and comfort for him, but....he was already asleep, she could not tell him the wonderful news of the miracle he had performed upon her:::
She over hears the whisper very faintly. "Wait. He is a what?"
A glance to Tysiath. "Lupinossai have a unique chance to be born a deity. It usually only happens in the bloodline directly descended of Lupis. The Wolf blood line has created two deities. My father and I. None other have been born before. Iimiidiina though, seems to be a rare spark of deity power. He was born outside of the usual bloodline. In essence, we have a very young god on our paws."
"A god..." She looks at the young boy in shock, her eyes are widen and mouth dropped open. She is completely speechless now.
"This means Fleet and I will need to consider training him in the ways of being a deity. Seems he has the same ability with his voice like I do."
The boy shivers in his sleep, and he curls up against the Alpha.
Vuu sent soothing warmth into the lad well familliar with the drain of the first release of power.
"Wow..." is all she says in response
:::she moved forward to slide her hands underneath and around the child also, helping to cradle and comfort him from the other side. her form fairly radiated her aetherial energies, and her face glowed with another light as well:::
The boy still trembles.
A look to the water clock. It was very late.
He whispers. Must be dreaming already. "Miiaa... Diiaa..."
"I wish there was something I could do to help him feel better."
:::she leaned in to drop gentle kisses upon the child's forehead, like a healing rain while she whispered to him:::: all is well Iimii...all is well.... you have restored and magnified Sita.....she is as she was and moreover again.... you gift her beyond words and she will serve you always.
Vuu eyed Sita as well. Seems a chain of events has occured. Hearing Iimiidiina, Vuu grimaced. "Yes, sleep. Dream of your parents."
Small furred fingers clench the sash on Vuu's back.
:::she looked up at Vuu:::: his parents....they are not with the den?
A look to Tysiath as he made ready to leave for the Den. "He just needs some sleep. Our powers drain our soul and bodies. What he did is something normally not doable until my age. His parents died in the Terror of Takhasis. He is an orphan."
"Oh no...death of parents is never good..." She is frowning much now at the thought of losing parents.
:::her face began to glow with a holy light:::: no longer....if you and he will permit it.....sita will be his mother...for now she truly may....he has restored her dakini nature, but yet, given her the gift of generation of life within.....she understands now what love truly is...and this gift she will give to him if she may.
Vuu nodded and headed for the door. "I hate to leave so soon. But my powers that make him sleep may not hold for long."
The orphan's breaths come out trembling.
"We understand, Vuusoolta Wolf. I hope everything goes well."
Blinks. "He made you pregnant?"
She looks over at Sita, getting the same impression.
:::she laughed joyfully and shook her head negatively::: noooo....but he gave her the capacity to be so!
"Canis indeed has a decendent. It makes sense now. Father and I are decendents of Lupis. Canis has now made hers known." Vuu was trembling now.
The fatherless son give a tiny smile in his deep slumber.
Vuu just bowed his head and moved into the night with the boy. This was much above his own knowledge. they must meet with fleet.
