Coszcotl was happy Hush was happy. She had a mate and children, being a mother was a wonderful thing, but he knew she must be tired, company was nice, but Coza knew that the pups would need her shortly. He would not dawdle much longer and take away this precious moment that the gods had given them. He knew she would be a wonderful mother, it seemed her bad luck that day with the demon had been because him, and he certainly did not want to linger if any of that still clung to his being. She seemed very radiant and jolly, so happy like a mother should be, and Coza couldn’t help but wonder if his Moth was also so bright when she had her puppies. Her days were behind her with that though. He did not mind, not at all, he was happy to just have her.

He was no hawkshaw though; he couldn’t have ever known all the strange circumstances to her children’s birth, nor the fact that those pups were not Sen’s. Nor would he probably ever know should the couple continue to grow with them and raise them together. His tail waved lightly, happy at the pride they both exude but then tilted his head at their curiosity of tribute. So they did not do tribute either? Was that not common here? Or even existent? Well they were both curious, wondering what he meant.

”Not do tribute, to mother and child in land? He knew it was true, seemed no one gave tribute to mothers here. Coza had been given lots of tribute when he was born, though born to commoner parents, the more tribute a pup received the greater it would be come, it would earn the favor of the gods. Well he hadn’t offered much, but he hoped he could explain this, that would be difficult. ”Tribute, good for pup, more tribute mean better time as adult. Gods give child favor, make them strong. No tribute means weak child, happy I could give some tribute.” His tail wagged happily, but he knew it was time to go. He had given her tribute to her and her children, they would all be strong now, though he wished he could offer more like deer or goat.

”I leave you to family, Hush, need to go back to my Moth, I feel missing.” He said his tail waving lightly still, he missed Moth and by the feeling in him she was missing him and calling him back too. ”I come see Hush, Sen and pups soon, ok?” He dipped his head to both the adult wolves and then turned, he would have to find something else for his Moth and his new Alphas children. It was okay, his friend’s wellbeing along with her pups was much more important to him than Alphas who surely would get tribute from other members of Diveen.
