Hux turned to place the weed into a rubbish pile, but when he did so, he found himself looking at a pup with fur resembling Wildfire's. It seemed safe to assume that this was one of the children that the missing woman shared with heda. Her scent was similar, and her age seemed to match Artaax's.

Discarding the weed, he waited for the girl to finish her greeting and gave her a small, lopsided grin, responding in their shared tongue. "Hello, little one," he spoke softly. "I'm tending the garden... It - it has to be prepared for winter." His tail waved amiably. Children never failed to put him in a good mood, not that Hux had been unhappy prior to Blixen's arrival.
