Qeya River symphony of life

Malrok, second born, is the polar opposite of his lusty brother. Quiet, serene, satisfied. He slips from her womb into the world a silent thing, breathing deep upon his sac breaking,

And then trundles, with the bone-deep nature of a newborn, toward her teat.

He suckles, but does not fight the other pup for control. He slips into slumber, and with it, deep dreams. There is no jagged edge between his life before and after birth;

It is the same.

He is still of himself.

He curls against Sakhmet's rounded side and sleeps, snoring somewhat loudly, tiny face slack and at ease.
