While Bianca and Elian spoke quietly, two massive figures approached from the treeline. Their steps were light—careful, as if terrified of the ground beneath them.
Considering what I did, I don't blame them. Still, this is effective as a means to monitor an area.
"Daughter," called one of the figures.
Bianca turned. Her eyes met Bastion and Silent's—and after a long pause, she croaked the words with difficulty.
"Mom. Dad."
Elian could tell the words felt foreign to Bianca. But the small smile on his master's face said everything.
Silent took another step and walked forward, "Daughter, thank you for saving Whisper. What happens now?"
At her question Bianca gazed at Elian in confusion.
"Uhm, what do you mean, Mom? Naturally our pack sticks together. We will get stronger and beat up everyone who messed with Fralhame."
Uncharacteristically, Bianca spoke more animated, she even raised her fist as she answered Silent with pride.
