It was only once a year that a man could be as excited as Azeran was today. There were always things that made people happy, ecstatic, unable to contain their bliss, such as a wedding, your son passing into manhood, seeing your beautiful strong child wielding that personalized Lakan for the first time in his life, watching him become a skilled fighter with and without it, and above all, your son's birthday. Azeran was more excited about his son's birthday than he was his own (there was no longer anything special with his birthdays in his opinion). It was a celebration of Adrin's birth, it was the celebration of his survival into forty four years of healthy disciplined Akalak life, and it was a celebration that, Azeran thought, could only be fully appreciated with the perfect gift a father could offer. Azeran looked down at his side at the young woman next to him. She seemed human in every way, the height, the hair, her natural beauty (and she was fairly attractive), but there were a few details that gave her away for what she was. The constant jerking gazes to view her surroundings, the redundant sniffing of the hair as she observed the odors that were everywhere around, and she most likely was attracted to the wonderful scented concoction of food waiting just on the other side of the door. Golden red hair that reached all the way to the young woman's butt, skin that was pearly white (almost), and nails that were lengthy, but expertly groomed. She was a Kelvic, a Lioness to be correct, and although she had not yet learned the Akalak language, or even all the slightest cultural rituals that were ever so important to the giant blue men, she seemed to have been tamed and trained well. Fresh off the plains, a new life for the girl. After a few moments of silent standing, only her sniffing breaking said silence, she gazed up at Azeran with large green eyes, curious and confused, but not afraid. Azeran lighty rapped on the door with his fist, expecting and hoping for Islena to answer. Azeran wanted her with him when he present Adrin with his gift. The Kelvic girl. Azeran was certain that his son would appreciate this, he already knew that he himself did. |
