Duskfire Glacier Sometimes loss is a good thing

Eden couldn't contain her joy upon hearing her son's interest in becoming a caregiver. Her face beamed, a wide smile encompassing her maw, and her tail kept a steady wag behind her. I know, sweetheart. Kieran was always the more compassionate of her pair, and she knew that his heart held a certain capacity for love and kindness. Whereas she would have wished he took more from his father, she was happy with the way her blessing turned out. I can teach you whatever you might need to know. And Kieran, I want you to know that I'm very, very proud of you. Eden smiled and licked the fur on the child's head back, leaving a gentle kiss on his crown.
