I agree! Big Grin wc:421


Ehno would have been surprised even just a few years ago to learn just how big his family would become. The Marinos had been a small clan to begin with, just the wayward siblings starting a new life in a strange new land. But slowly, their family seemed to grow. Savina and Kansas came together to join their small family with the extensive Sadiras, and before long they had pups of their own. Before long, Ghita and Ehno both had children of their own, and their family continued to grow in many ways. It brought them closer to people like Soran, and for that he was grateful. “It is an honor for me as well.”


The Aedile spoke of her strange ties to the land, and Ehno could not help but agree. “This land does have a sort of magnetism, doesn’t it? It certainly pulled us Marinos in from all the way across the sea,” he said with a laugh. Yes, this place certainly had a way of attracting people from all over the world and bringing them together. Perhaps that was part of the reason why Ehno enjoyed it here so much. It was different from the places he had been in Europe, very much so, but that did not make him love it here any less. As Soran said, all they could hope for in the future was some goodness, and he hoped that his land would oblige them.


The woman agreed that their ability to change forms was a wonderful, if bizarre thing. It allowed them to do so many things, see many places. Indeed, had they lacked the ability to change forms like this, Ehno would have never left Italy. Sailing without hands would be an impossibility, though it did make for an amusing mental image. “An invaluable skill, indeed,” he mused as he gazed at his hands. Soran seemed to be doing the same.


Travels and adventure seemed to be more of Ehno’s forte than Soran’s, as she did not miss the excitement as he did. Perhaps it was as she said, and this was due to the scope of experiences he’d had while adventuring, but maybe some were simply not made to seek the thrill of travel as much as others. Regardless, they both had a fondness for the more peaceful lifestyle, and that was what mattered. “There is nothing better than spending peaceful days here with family.” Now if only these days of strife would end, they could experience it in full once more.
