Blacktail Deer Plateau Who would've thought that you'd be bad for my health?

Throughout Osprey's brief explanation of family ties, Saena made soft "ohs" and "ahs" of understanding. Her curiosity about her family was formerly limited to her deceased mother. She'd never actually met a grandparent, so she'd never thought to ask about them, though in hindsight it was rather silly not to wonder who Peregrine's and Pied's parents were.

Her attention was wholly on Osprey now as she asked, bright-eyed, "is our family large?" She imagined it was small, just Peregrine, Atticus, Osprey, Velox, their parents... she didn't know about Crete, or that her great grandmother was a rather notorious potty mouth, or that there were countless relatives on her family tree, or that the Redleafs were truly just a branch off the DeMonte tree (which Saena knew nothing about).
