It took fourteen days of life for Malrok's eyes to finally open.
He was not the most precocious of babes in this regard, but it mattered not. In the darkness, he'd been lost in dreams, and had fine-tuned his other senses as well. Vision was only yet another layer upon the layers that were life.
The tiny orbs were the deep blue of a summer sky, and they swiveled slowly, taking in each new piece of visual information. A small, brownish lump—@Attuaserk. A larger, ruddy form. . .he lifted his small, blunted nose and scented @Sakhmet.
Ah! This was the Great Mother.
Their den was small but cozy, built into the earth. And outside, a blinding light; Malrok looked away, blinking. It was too much for now.
He focused on his brother's face instead.
He wondered if this was much like the form his own soul had chosen.
