Duskfire Glacier mamatsak ∓

Veteran was overjoyed to hear his new "aunt and uncle" agree, and he leapt into the air in unbridled celebration. His joy was contagious, and as he ran circles around Lane with excited yips, she forgot entirely about her troubles with Wintersbane. She had meant to ask Kukutux to come look at the saiyu she had brewed, and to recommend a dosage for Wintersbane or anything else that could help. But all of that slipped her mind as she looked lovingly and proudly down upon her son, heart so full it could burst.  

"I couldn't be happier or more relieved that you're here," she would impart again, this time in preparation to depart. She didn't believe in gods or spirits or any such nonsense, but she was overcome with the feeling that something in the universe must be watching out for Duskfire Glacier. "Our hunters will join you shortly. Say goodbye, Veteran." He would do so with enthusiasm, with quick hugs and licks all around. 

Lane watched him with a half-smile. Though her emotion was more restrained, her love for the boy would radiate from every fiber of her being.
