He was greeted with his foster son's call, and sent back a small huff of hello. Jandro was set down on the floor and he immediately went up and pushed in close to his black furred brother, looking at the girl before them that was kept in their mother's arms. Who was she? She was smaller then himself and Dymtr. León was curious of this small child that Io suddenly had and he wondered where she had had gotten it from, for a moment his mind went black at the prospect of her stealing it from another woman. He was about to ask where it had come from when she spoke. His jaw clicked shut from his almost spoken words and he looked at it critically.

She seemed distressed, in her own world as the girl squirmed around and gurgled nonsense. She was more the size of Adwen with her coyote blood than the two wolfen children of his own breeding. León took several steps closer until he was almost upon her and then sunk down to his haunches, balancing on his toes with his hands on the floor. Curiosity flared stronger as the white female looked up, suddenly noticing his presence. Her eyes were unique as his own, a pale shade of turquoise that was unusual. He reached out a giant earthen hand to lay gently on her head for a second, and for just a second she allowed it before pulling back to nibble on the fur with sharp needle puppy teeth. He sniffed at her curiously, she smelt of Sarajevo, Io's older son and of some unknown female, presumably the mother of this girl and also somewhere in there faintly of Io as well.

Satisfied with his closer look the man pulled his hand away from her biting jaws and shifted position to kneel on the floor, Dymtr and Jandro settling in next to him,

"Does she have a name?"
