409
Nayru said nothing as Saul resolved to find Melee and Range. They were out of her hands, doing their own thing. If they chose to leave, that was their own doing, but they stayed, moved among the Ichikans like ghosts. Perhaps Saul could give them the family ties that Gideon had severed, perhaps they were happy with their existence as it was but Nayru said nothing. She only nodded as Saul agreed to the arrangement between them, about Temeraire and and Kahlo. They were the future, they were the ones that needed her now. Nayru knew she had no choice but to devote herself to the small, helpless beings one hundred percent until they became their own, self sufficient entities.
Nayru ears perked as Saul expressed gratitude at the couple taking in Nayru. Her ears fell back, again she felt a burden, like some homeless beggar. Saluce saw her as irresponsible, X'yrin she felt saw her as silly and stubborn and what did Saul think of the Jiryu, so helpless as to need force herself upon the newly mated couple? Yet she said nothing, only nodded again, seeming to have lapsed into silence as Saul spoke on. Saul would see Saluce soon, and probably for many days after. Temeraire would have to stay within the den, with Kahlo and herself and so if Saul did not stay himself he would be coming and going an awful lot. Just then Nayru turned to Saul, where would the green eyed man stay?
"You can stay in my room, with me and the pups if you'd like." Nayru motioned with her muzzle to one of the smaller passages breaking off from the big room. The room had been dug out by Saluce before the birth, and was big enough to fit Nayru and another comfortably enough. Surely Saul wouldn't wish to stay there forever, but for the time being he probably wouldn't wish to be away from his son either. That she did not ask Saluce or X'yrin did not bother her, Saluce would never turn the man away and X'yrin would not question the Jiryu. Besides, Sarian was already a frequent figure in the ever growing household. Soon enough they would crowd each other out, too much energy in too small of a space, but for now it made sense. They were family after all, close quarters only reassured them at night of the other's presence, sturdy and safe and stable.
