germanicus too thought of the children he had wanted. he still wished them, and he still desired that fennec was their mother.

but all four of his first had gone.

he must make himself a better father before he forced a new child to be the only thing which bound germanicus to mereo.

he wanted to reach for fennec; he wanted to enfold her against his chest and tell her softly that no matter what happened upon his trek, he would return. germanicus did not mean to disappear into the world.

it was tactless in the selfish way he had always acted.

no more.

but he did not think she would believe him, nor did he feel he had the right to touch her again.

"i will return, fennec." perhaps she might hear the clear new note in his voice.

softly the imperator rose, limping back to the den.

the shadows engulfed him at and last he fell into a winnowing and weakened slumber.
