Tension was an easy thing to sense, and I can tell that there is a distinct lack of ease within my father. It may be subtle, but of all the wolves in the world, only me and mother would notice. Perhaps some of my other siblings, but I am not certain on her perceptive they truly are. I think perhaps Vesper would notice. Judas and Maradona have disappeared, and I simply do not know enough about Octavia quite yet. Yet, I know this subject must be touchy or tough for my father for him to be this way, even if it is slight.

He did admit that betrothal was not an option for them. Although he was not outright saying it, there was an admittance there. I know now for certain of my blood, but I am not certain that it particularly matters. If anything, my blood was slightly more refined due to such a choice, especially if it was made due to choice. I simply shrug at his question of considering all possibilities. I smirk once more.

"Possibilities are almost endless, yes? It would be foolish to spend an eternity considering them all. After all, as far as we know, we are only mortal," I say in rebuttal, lifting my brow at him. It may not exactly be the time for philosophical technicalities, but it does show my point.

To hear that there was more to my blood was somewhat surprising. The closeness I held to mine was important, and yet to know there were others with shared blood that were unknown to me? It was an odd feeling. I wondered why he never sought out his Iromar siblings, and my face did express my slight puzzlement on the matter. My father's tension seemed to rise more with mentions of other blood, and I simply fail to understand why immediately. He speaks of an Aunt of mine in Diveen, from Ruvindra and a Voltaire, although I know not even my grandfather's name. A blight? But how? I tilted my head slightly at the comment, and if there was more I wished to know.

"Why is it you never sought them out? If you wish to share, I do not see why would not want to meet them, to know them as I know my own siblings. And perhaps it is new, and unfortunate that my siblings do not wish to learn more of our origins. One day, I am sure they will ask," I stated with a slight nod. I have faith that my siblings will want to explore their origins more, and understand where they came from so they can tell their future generations. I know that this situation seems more...complicated than I may realize, but I am certainly not one to back down when things get uncomfortable.
