:"Briar and Bramble.. Pups of that important line. Those Faelcu never forgot the kindness Alpha Sage had brought them all those years ago. When Sage's daughter disappeared, they kept her safe from the shadows, though her mind never truly recovered from those haunting whispers in the dark."
:"Is that why those beasts follow those poorly twins? For an alpha above me who died generations ago?"
:"Not quite. When they were young, The bolder one, Briar. She wandered off. Of course Bramble would follow-"
:"She's meek, stupid even. Of course she followed. I remember tearing them a new one once we finally found them a full moon cycle later."
:"Hm. As i was saying, Aodhan. She followed. They went exploring a cave. A faelcu cave. Pups of that nasty woman, the two that were taken. They had transformed to be what they were grown by. Adult faelcu. The two watched after the pups, bonding to the twins. Each became what their chosen pup needed. For Briar, a calm presence to aid with reason. Something to fetch her when her mind or paws wondered too far. For Bramble, a bold presence to aid with boundaries and individuality. Something to snap at others when she wasn't quite able to. Im sure you noticed them follow you from the cave, follow all the way home. And grow alongside the twins."
Aodhan:"Of course i did, im not dense."
:"Hm, sure. Those twins will never meet harm, never truly work a day. Those faelcu will aid them for their lives. And follow them to the afterlife too."
Aodhan:"What a long winded way to tell me i can't get rid of them. Is it a hobby of yours to waste my time, Tala?"
Tala:"Perhaps"
