Her tail thumped behind her at Hati's words. She wasn't sure what kind of mother she'd make, but she'd make sure to care for them and that they had the tools to survive. They already owned her entire heart, despite having only been alive long enough for her to listen to their quiet breaths and memorize the beating of their hearts. They weren't even entertaining yet. She still loved them though, and would fiercely protect them. Terra nodded her head, feeling a little bad that she left the house Ayita had opened up to her a couple days ago to create this den. She hadn't been able to stay there, needing to seek out another place for her pups to be born. Her hackles raised at the mention of Ayita being attacked, quickly repeating to herself that there were patrollers out there who would keep them safe.
Straightening up Terra looked at Hati with interest when he mentioned knowing who Loki was. Her tale spoke of Loki as the only coyote foolish enough to challenge fire to a contest, and told of the many challenges that came when he did manage to befriend it. None of the stories Terra knew were written down, of course, so she had to wonder how Hati had managed to hear of them. Well, Loki had been one of the greatest tricksters. Not Coyote, but he was still very good. Ananse is a coyote who never seemed to have enough to eat. He was always scavenging, and he became attuned to the earth and was able to trick it to reveal to him where the prey was hidden, even when food was scarce.
