Heron Lake Plateau improve his shining tusks

Though Caiaphas was hard-pressed to relinquish her babes from her yellow spearing eyes, it would always come down to the fact that she could not be there every second of every day to watch and coddle them with the fretful intention of never losing another child. She was absent when Svalinn woke, and when Raleska further refused to stir for him, the child took it upon himself to search for someone familiar... and willing.

He pounced away from the Eyjolfur densite, initially pursuing his mother's recent trail, but -- as it tends to occur with children -- became distracted when a butterfly floated harmlessly across his path. Startled by it at first, Svalinn pulled back fromt he swathe of new color with an uncertain growl. It was a beat later when he realized this thing was small enough to fit into his mouth, and that thought  turned into an instinctive lunge as the butterfly dipped suggestively in front of him. He was of course too slow to catch the fluttering insect, but he gave chase through a need to practice, forgetting entirely what he had been doing before.
