Northstar Vale Makriá

The Arche understood that she would need to heal. He did not wish for her to reopen any of her wounds by gallivanting through the vale. There would be time for her to learn the secret places. Winter would be new for all of them. Arsenio felt as though he had not tasted the bitterness of it in Akashingo. The Pharaoh was good for something, perhaps.

As Towhee spoke of her children, Arsenio smiled. She had made a brave choice by offering to let her children stay behind. Mereo was strict and challenging. They would not have had an easy life under the watchful eye of the Roman Imperator. They would have learned a good deal about being soldiers and fighting for a cause, however. The redstone wolf believed that both were important lessons.

You could not think they would want to stay and let you have all the fun?

Arsenio laughed heartily. It was good to know that there were other children. It was better to know that Epoch had turned itself into a place for families. It meant that they had a future.

At the mention of her classes, the redstone figure became intent. His ears stood perked.

I would like to attend the class, please. My son- I am certain that he would have interest in one, or both. My daughters, too. The man thought it was an exciting thing that they already had someone wanting to teach, to pass on their knowledge.
