Moonspear a still heart

Njord took Meerkat’s assurance to heart. “I appreciate ye sayin’ these things,” he voiced as he touched his nose to hers. Truly, Meerkat was his partner in all things and acted as his rock. He listened to Towhee and co’s plight, nodding with a throaty hum in understanding.

“A familiar tale, hmm?” he jested grimly, though his blue eyes filled with sympathy. “Ah’m sorry tae hear ye mother’s ‘ad such a bad go of it. Perhaps they will stay with us at Moonspear?” If relocating was on the table, then it made perfect sense for the distant family to come together. “Would be good fer Seal, Orca an’ Stingray tae ken their family better." Maybe they could make lemonade out of lemons.

Njord’s attention was stolen by the girls fussing over the crab. He rumbled a hearty laugh. “Git ‘em!” Njord cheered.

“Aye, that sound like a bonnie plan, my love.” First, he would rest and then he would go greet Towhee.
