Zii felt immediate shame at her mothers reaction, lowering her head and looking away. She didn't want to see her fathers reaction either. She didn't want to see their disappointed faces. She just kept her eyes shut. "They are on their way to the den." She said softly. She stood up, ready for Azar to escort her back to her own den site.

She looked up at Azar and said nothing. Her sisters children may help but... she had something else in mind. She nodded, walking away from them.
