They seemed to share similar thoughts of the world, and it caused Tlantli to crave the knowledge of her home before her birth. When was this woman living with her family? Though it was clear now that Eris was not her kin now, back then it would have been different. What sort of ordeal had caused Eris to be removed from their home? Females rarely left. They couldn't perform ehecatl — a fact she found distasteful — and there was no purpose for them to leave. As Eris said herself. Mecatl. Family, heritage, was ever so important to the coyotes of Eterne.

The dark woman said the name of Tlantli's sister-aunt, but the golden female gave no response. Citlali was now her son, but had indeed started as the spawn of quiet Dieriel. Dieriel had never been close to her sister-niece, and instead spent much of her time tending to the workings of the household rather than her brother's adoptive children. It had always been her way, intelligent as she was. Metetztli ruled their home. Baphoment made his place. Dieriel was so easily forgotten.

Golden ears focused on the sable-shaded female as she explained her story. Her fall from Kimaris grace had been so easy, so simple. Just a story that some smart Eternian deciphered to mean more than it might have anywhere else. No, a coyote and a half-coyote would never give something as magnificent as Eris. Tlantli laughed and patted her own chest with an open palm. "You get somet'ing liek me, no? You ahre much differen', Ayeris." It wasn't an unpleasant difference. While Tlantli would never feel wolves as superiors, she did see a beauty that few others from her home would consider.

It seemed Dieriel played an important part in Eris' leaving of the Mexican colony. Tlantli tilted her head; was it really so simple? "Aye was not close to Dieriel. She was not maye paren', no liek Metetztli." Again, she left out Baphomet. Filth in the blood of her family was nothing to be proud of, even if he was devout to their faith.
