Sawtooth Spire there goes rabbit, he choked

The parents switched their shifts as Iqniq beckoned the children forth. His woofs were muffled behind the rabbit in his jaws, but he was loathe to put it down before he saw who decided to come to dinner so to speak.. If he was swarmed by all four of them he thought it better to keep the rabbit mostly out of reach until he could lay a few ground rules. Soon he'd be unable to use his height against them and he would take advantage of it for as long as he could.

Fortunately, only Ping ventured forward. The rest lazed or distracted themselves with other things so Iqniq had no problem setting the rabbit on the ground. Once there, he put a paw atop the tawny creature to reiterate his claim upon the corpse. Ping greeted him and sat down on the ground with question. Iqniq grinned. "It belongs to everyone," he said instead. "Today, we're sharing." It was a tricky to learn concept as they were all selfish creatures at heart, especially when it came to food, but it was a valuable lesson all the same. Time go give it a go.

The boys were starting to eat solid food. Thus far, it'd all been pieces and chunks they'd delivered to their little mouths. Sorting through the fur to get to the good bits below was a new thing, but he didn't doubt they'd have much difficulty with it. "Would you like to eat first?" he offered. Ping had showed up first. He could have first dibs. As far as their puppy pecking order went, Iqniq ran with it on a first come, first serve basis. It worked thus far.

Iqniq lifted his paw from the rabbit corpse and sat down to give Ping full access.
