I am glad that Nord decided to come, and I watch as the family gathers and plays in the fields. It is not too long until Tzadkiel came into view, and I was surprised at how much he had grown...even if he remained somewhat small. He walks well though, and as he gets closer I notice how well he keeps his fur. I breath heavily, still weak but starting to feel better from my birth. He was my nephew and he held so much of our family within him just with his looks, and I feel a great sense of comfort as he comes.

”Yes, these are your cousins,” I say with a smile, Nord mentioning that they are troublemakers as well. I nod. ”Yes- they are indeed,” I say with a gentle huff. Ru decides to try and race Shadow, but is quickly distracted as his older cousin comes in the picture...and challenges him to a race. I shake my head slightly. I guess he has to learn, even as he bargains for a head start. I turn my head now to a youthful howl to see Oberon trying to join the race. A gorgeous little boy he is, and I know Zaph has been busy. Tzadkiel begins to argue with the pups, and really I will let them go at it.

My attention diverts to Meryl and my smile grows. My tail wags behind me as I continue to lean against Nord. ”Meryl! You came!” I say, before looking back at Pascal. She can remain back if she wants, and maybe one of Zaph’s children will bring her out a bit. I turn my eyes in surprise as Mithos comes, my Angel-marked brother. I know he has been around, but it has been a while. I nod to him.

”Yes, it is quite large. Mother and Father would have enjoyed it,” I say with a smile that is touched with a frown at the end. ”Oh uh, Rurik is the grey boy there, Shadowstorm is the black one there, and Andriel is coming up right there with the star glitter,” I say looking fondly onto my children. ”This girl is Pascal,” I say shooting her a glance. ”This is Uncle Mithos,” I say to whoever is listening. ”You can learn a lot about the stars from him, Pascal,” I say...figuring she is the only one really listening.

Zaph finally comes, looking fat and happy as usual as he embraces his son and greets their siblings. My tail slows at his mention of my condition, and my prussian blue eyes narrow in response. ”Well next time YOU try and looking amazing after giving birth to multiple puppies, hm?” I say, the sass in my tone returning from the moments of calmness before. My narrowed eyes are then suddenly directed to a pup that came with him, one that much resembled Andromeda with those golden yellow eyes. Already the girl wins favor with Celeste as she chastises her father for his words. I smirk in response as the young girl compliments me.

”It appears Astrid brings some sense to your children, Zaph. Darlings, you better get used to doing that, boy always need to be put in their place,” I say teasingly with a wink towards the pup that tugs at my heart. ”What might your name be? I like you already, you look very much like your grandmother, you know that?” I say, now trying to lessen my lean upon Nord so I do not continue to burden him too much...and to stand tall and show how glorious my fur remains.
