Broken Boulder what will you dream of tonight, lady rachel?

And then, even more words came from the Chancellor, and these brought her dark brows together, mulling each and every syllable. Names she didn't know, problems she didn't really understand. But she could sympathize, and she could most certainly listen, and listen she did, until Delight had gone full circle, back to the pups again.

She blinked silently for a moment, then reached out to press her muzzle against his shoulder, gentle and comforting. Lily pulled back and smiled, eyes sparkling. She was glad he was here. She had. . .well, not underestimated him, but certainly had misjudged him. Had focused too much on the negatives of his presence here, rather than the positive aspects of Delight as a whole. She could feel bad about it, but she chose instead, now, to move forward. From this day on, they were friends.

And there was one thing. . . Lily dipped her nose in the direction of the den, then glanced at Delight, her eyes questioning. Can I see your pups? She wouldn't mind if she said no; wouldn't be upset if he didn't understand at all.
