Reassuring words brought a loving growl to her darling boy’s chest. Even if there existed an open sky above their heads, they had everything they needed here. It was smaller and his mother was the queen here and the boy immensely liked the thought of being of royal blood. He leaned against her warmth, enjoying the sensation of having satisfied all needs that were. Ears flickered with the revelation of several siblings, but Pandemic did not know jealousy in this department yet. He had received the attention he had demanded up until now, and whenever he was in doubt, a parent’s well-chosen words had always been there to fix any emotional injury.
He imagined watching them, though it was hard for him to imagine puppies younger than himself, for he had never seen one. He and his siblings had always been the youngest in Anathema, and there were no other children in Salsola. He preferred it that way, but having a selection of new puppies to play with wasn’t bad. He liked his immediate family, and by the time they arrived he would be big and strong and protect them from all evil. None would be able to walk away from his watch. The ebony child’s snout bobbed up and down in silent agreement to Eris’ words.
”How big will they be?” the gray eyed child wondered, unable to imagine himself as a small child any longer. How big would a little brother or sister be like compared to him now?
