It is not too long that they have to wait and besides, they are not on some ignoble quest. Theirs is a quest of love and friendship so they simply wait. More correctly, Natu waits while Ankh begins to pace back and forth with each step more forceful and plaintive than the next. Pale eyes watch her daughter's growing agitation with a curl of her lips, a sly smile of withheld entertainment. By now she knows what Ankh is thinking. She also can see the way jealousy is beginning to burgeon and fester on the lovely girl, for Ankh had thus far been the only young girl who spent time with Ailith. She had grown quite close to her makeshift aunt and it would be such a change... ah, here they come, she thinks and tilts her head up with a beautiful grin. They are so lovely, she thinks as her eyes grace the small figures bounding out of the bush. The girl is full of an innocent sweetness as she moves closer with her questions. Ankh draws close to her mother and stands tall, looking down at the girl with curiosity, albeit restrained. "Umm," Ankh begins in an answer to Kirsi's question before Ailith speaks.

"Aunt Ailith!" She yips and bounds past Kirsi to press her head into Ailith's neck except that her head is tilted so while she nuzzles the white female she stares at the boy as if he is to blame for her not getting to come see more of Ailith as of late. "They are beautiful," Natu breaths, stepping forward with her tail wagging quickly and leaning down to rub her nose across the head of the girl and then stepping towards the boy with the same movement even when he curls back beneath her touch. "My niece and nephew, how pleased I am to finally meet you." Natu blinks down at the boy now, deciphering his words with a pleased smile. "Indeed we do."

"Yes, we are who she has spoken of," Ankh was quick to interject, peeling back and circling around Kirsi with her nose out and sniffing the girl. The mention that Ailith has talked about her has soothed her pride somewhat and she is interested in these puppies. Then her gaze turns upward to spy the silver figure of Sleekwing and she bounces towards him, leaping up so that her growing front paws press into his chest and licks him underneath his jaw. "Hello Sleekwing!" She chimes daintily before thrusting back off of him to circle around Cadwan, who growls low at her advance. Natu turns her gaze to Sleekwing with a knowing grin and a nod. "That it is. A wonderful day to play in the meadows, I think," she muses, lifting her gaze to Ailith now in a silent question. "YES! Come with me!" Ankh shouts, suddenly and gloriously excited so that she almost herds to two for a moment before darting towards a nearby field her and her mother had run through filled with dandelions.
