I have never feared the storm
Sah nodded approvingly and began to prepare the drink by warming milk on the stove and chopping chocolate. When it was done, he poured the steaming beverage into two mugs and carried them to the table. One had to be brought over with telekinesis as Frog was still taking up half of his reach.
The telekinetic mug was put down gently in front of Sohalia as Sah sat down, Frog curling up in his lap. Taking a sip, the Wild Thunder could practically feel Sohalia's inquisitive gaze. Placing his mug down with a sigh, he explained the drastic change. The words were hollow, factual even as a deep rage brushed faintly against the Attuned bond. Sah was able to suppress most of it, however, so as not to alarm Sohalia. "We moved because...well...Dahlia. She kidnapped and tortured my son because my being curt was too disrespectful. Took Luka from his own bed while I wasn't home. Moving doesn't fix it, but I didn't want either of my children to have to sleep in that place anymore." It didn't feel safe. Invaded and a source of trauma, moving was the only option.
Frog let out a soft whine, nuzzling Sah's side as he felt the rage that the Wild Thunder kept from spilling into Sohalia's awareness. Gently stroking the dark wolf's flank, he sighed. "It happened over LongNight, just a few days before we last met. I wouldn't have left for Torchline, but it was for Seren's funeral." Seren had been precious to him, in ways he couldn't truly articulate. A dear friend, a close confidant. Not his first love but...the potential had certainly been there.
