Briar Valley - Lilia's House

|
It's...the house in the woods again. I don't want to see anymore... Why...? |
|
First milk, then grains, and vegetables stewed to the point they're mush? Are you sure this will help him grow? |
|
That's what it said in that human childrearing book. As fae, I don't see how we're in a position to do aught but follow its instructions. |
|
But you've eaten meat on the bone and seafood and such since you were a little boy... |
|
Yes—because I'm a dragon, not some frail human. |
|
When you were hungry, you cried. When you were full, you slept. Babies are babies be they dragon or human. |
|
Gracious, you licked that plate clean. Did you like that food, Silver? |
|
That's a good boy. Eat up, rest up, and grow up. I worry you might tire of the same flavor every day, though. Suppose I gave the soup a few creative twists? Armadillo meat is supposed to be nutritious. I could mix in some of that, or perhaps some powdered blacknewt... |
|
...I'd advise against it. I'll schedule regular deliveries of baby food from the castle. It unsettles me to think of you shouldering this responsibility on your own. |
|
Oho. I thought you disliked humans. What brought about this change of heart? |
|
If the baby grows weaker, it would make you sad, would it not? |
|
...You're a sweet boy, Malleus. |

|
...... Father... Malleus... I... *sob* |

|
Again? You never learn... Begone. |
