-He nodded, and followed after slowly, trying hard to quall the urge to sweep the cub up and save him from the difficulties that presented themselves. But he could tell from his face.. from the aura that surrounded him he shouldn't.
It didn't make him not worry though. And there was a great relief in the pleasure god when finally the child touched the ground. Not a pretty job, and he cringed a little at the sounds of pain, but he was certainly alive and not seriously injured. And Lim thought maybe he could use a little pick me up.
Settling on the ground next to the godling he offered him a soft smile and soft words.- "Congratulations Khuluma. And welcome to the mortal realm."
-Inspecting him gently, he offered gently.- "You did a really good job, but it might be a good idea to rest a little before you go exploring. You've earned it."

He laid on his back, and looked up at the wide blue sky, the clouds rolling along slowly. To think he came from up there seemed amazing in this new perspective. Blowing the hair out of his face, he just remained there, before smiling. Limbuko’s words rang in his ears.
"Congratulations Khuluma. And welcome to the mortal realm.”
A wide, large grin spread over his face and despite being sore and tired, he felt alive and better than he had alone in God Haven. A giggle bubbled in the back of his throat, the type that came from overcoming job, and he started to laugh, his little frame shaking before he winced. His sides were hurting, his pretty hair was dirty, and he was tired beyond belief, but he was laughing. When he finally managed to catch his breath, he calmed down and turned his head to look to the older god. “It’s beautiful here. I don’t know how I could ever repay you for helping me.” He would have hugged the god, if he could have moved. Instead, he reached out and pressed his small paw on the god’s arm. “Thank you!”

-It was wonderful... the soft radiating glow of pleasure that bubbled off the cub. It felt amazing, lifting his worries away until all he could do was smile as well.-
"You're very welcome. Just do me a favor and have fun seeing all the new things there are for you down here." -He winked, a gentle rumble sounding in his throat.
It was obvious the kid was exhausted, so Lim's voice lifted softly in one last offer.- "Would you like me to stay with you until you fall asleep? You really should sleep before you do much more down here. It can get dangerous if you aren't alert and ready."

It was sound advice, but Khuluma didn’t want to start thinking of the dangers of this new and bright world just yet. His mind was trying to keep hold of this sense of accomplishment while fighting off the need to just pass out. His muscles were sore and his wings hurt, but he was here and there was plenty of stable, solid ground beneath his feet.
“Hm. Yeah. I could sleep.” Not even feeling as if he could move someplace more fitting, he turned over on his side. He wanted to just stay on this one spot, the place where he first touched the ground. He would mark it with a stick for later so that he could return to it later in life. Smiling, he looked over at Limbuko, grinning. “I promise to have fun. I’ll try and see and talk to everyone I can. That’s always fun….” He leaned his head on the dirt, laying there and letting his wings settle down. “…this was fun...this place is going to be fun.” His mind was just running with what he could possibly do now, but the energy wasn't there to go out and start. Cubs were cubs after all.

-It seemed he didn't have to wait for an answer, watching with soft eyes as the little one did what cubs did best. With careful toes Lim drew back the cub's hair gently, arranging the hair to make him look a little more collected, like the fine little solider he'd been.
Glancing up and around as he listened to the softening and slowing breaths of the cub, he pondered for a moment over whether or not he'd be safe. It was early enough in the day, the grasses tall enough to hide most of the cub when he lay, and... it was quite likely he'd only nap for a couple hours anyway. He'd be safe.
Nodding one final farewell to the cub, Lim turned, eyes streching across the horizon to find water. He glanced back one last time, when he was far enough that he could hardly see the cub anymore, and called out softly.- "Good luck little one."
