"Eventually meaning sometime in the next century, papa? I rather think they might refuse to learn." She smiled sadly, watching him. The first time she had seen a Punishment had been unnerving and had given her fear for her outspoken and thickheaded siblings. She did not wish to see it happen to them, but knew it would take one or the other getting one for them both to settle.

"Hopefully after, she will feel more like eating again. I wonder what she could be looking for to settle herself with this time."

Kang knew it too, and he didn't like thinking about it. Smiling wryly, he nodded, "Hopefully."

He frowned a bit again. "Fish, maybe, from the river. She's been eating a lot of it lately." Crucible spent a lot of his time down there, and while he'd grudgingly accepted years ago that the dragon didn't actually mean them any harm, he was still a little sore about the past history and being lied to. He hadn't bothered finding out if there was any relation to himself or Fonrar, not wanting to know.

"She likes the river. It is pleasing and quiet there." Even with the presence of the bronze. Perhaps it had been her introduction to him as a child, but his presence did not seem to give her as much worry as it did her father.

"Perhaps we could take dinner and join her there, do you beleive she would appreciate company?"

It made Kang feel very uncomfortable when Kali or Fonrar visited the river, but he knew he had no right to tell them to avoid it or the dragon. He just had to deal with it. He was grateful that Crucible respected his feelings and didn't talk to him often. "That sounds like a good idea. Let me check and see if she's even down there first." He took out his omnicomm and sent his mate a quick message.

Kali waited, patient and relaxed against her father's side. If there was one thing she had managed to inherit, that her siblings had somehow missed, it was the ability to be still. To wait.

There was nothing to be lost in taking a moment for silence.

"It will be nice to give her company, I think we will all be much happier once the eggs arrive. Though I imagine it will not settle her nerves overmuch until they hatch." It was exciting, to think of having siblings again. Little brothers and sisters to teach and help her parents with.

"She is, by Goliath's castle. I'll carry the food," Kang put his omnicomm away and stood up, finishing off his ale. "Don't expect her to leave them alone for very long at a time. I could barely get her to leave the house even for a couple of hours before you hatched."

"Oh, perhaps Goliath would like to join us." She rose, twisting lightly on her feet to look at him, smiling. "Papa, I am twenty, not a hatchling in need of constant attention. I will help mama look after the eggs, if she should want me to."

She had gone to war not three months past her tenth life-day with her father. She had learned to govern at his shoulder. It did not matter if Yana, Brevo and Grosk woke tomorrow from their sleep, or the three brothers and sisters she had never had the chance to meet, she was her father's eldest daughter. That fact would remain unchanged, even should her brothers and sister awake with the same years as she had.

Helping mama would be good practice, if she ever had a chance to have a clutch of her own.

Kang laughed and gave Kali a quick half-hug; he still didn't indulge in a lot of PDA, but living among humans and other races for so long had gotten him to loosen up a little bit. "I didn't say anything like that. I'm very well aware that you're an adult now." A snort, and he added, "You grew up on me too fast."

His wings rustled slightly, "I'll ask him, but more often than not lately, he's busy with other things." Goliath was rarely at his castle anymore, and far too focused on fighting the Ohm.

It would be strange, to encounter her siblings again with a new knowledge of human physical affection. But she returned the half hug, body leaning gracefully into her father's.

"All parents say that, Papa. I grew up at exactly proper speed." She smiled. "At least you can say, than even if I grew too fast, at least I grew up well."

She dipped her head in a nod. "It would be nice to offer the invitation, regardless."

"That you did," Kang smiled. He was very proud of Kali, and didn't bother trying to hide that fact from others. She was smart, damn good at archery and hand-to-hand, and most importantly, she was his daughter, something he once thought he'd never get the chance to have. "Go get whatever you want to drink, and I'll let Goliath know where we'll be if he wants to join us."
