I'll fight to survive through this thunderous life
without you by my side

set right after: the world has lost her way again

Although the very real problem that Ampere, his dearest friend, would murder him as soon as they were reunited, there were other problems that Mesec needed to face right now. Ampere and her reaction to this entire thing would have to wait until he got back to the Throat. And if, by sheer happenstance, he happened to take a very long time to get back there? Well, that was just the way things were going to go. The problem now that the feline had left, now that he was facing a small bird, was that he did not know how to care for a baby bird. He had no idea what zephyrs ate, whether they were the berries-and-seeds type of bird or the fish-and-blood type of bird. The first would be a lot easier, he thought, though how he was going to help the bird eat the food seemed daunting.

And the baby bird, growing cuter now that it wasn’t quite so ugly with the stickiness of hatching, was just sitting there staring up at him with those big eyes. He was amazed at how quickly the bond formed, how fast he felt a kinship with the creature before him, still sitting in the shards of the silver-laced black egg and still with a piece of it atop it’s head like a tiny little hat.

“Uh, hi.” Mesec started, lowering his head toward the little bird and being greeted with a chorus of chirps that sounded like they were happy, though how was he supposed to know what a happy bird sounded like? Or a happy zephyr, really, because it was clear even now that the chick before him was no baby robin. It had four wings, covered in black and silver down. What would it look like as it grew up? Or… he? Mesec was pretty sure it was a he but, again, he had no idea.

His mind was already working out to try and remember who he knew that had a bird companion that might be able to help him out, if he could find them in time. This was a precious gift that his mother had given him, more precious than he had expected, and equally daunting. The fear of failure had not left him, and really it only grew stronger now that there was a life directly connected to his. He would do whatever it took to care for the little hatchling, who was now attempting to hop out of the remains of the egg and toward him, chirping like a madman the entire time.
