“I didn’t lose them, they’re around here somewhere.” Mesec shot an angry glare at his companion, while Lucius preened his feathers. The zephyr appeared peaceful externally but he was really berating Mesec through their bond, as he had been for a while now.

“Aren’t you worried?”

“No! It hasn’t been that long.”

Although that second part was true - it was barely mid-afternoon and she had encouraged the twins to go play or explore around the Edge late morning - the first was a downright lie and both Mesec and Lucius knew it. Of course he was worried. It was safe to say that worry had always come pretty naturally to the demigod but how parenthood magnified it was incredible. He never stopped worrying.

Were they happy? Were they warm enough? Had they eaten enough? Were they ready to start learning how to fly? Were they enjoying living in the Edge? Did they like him? Had they gotten enough sleep?

Were they happy?

It was an endless loop and, really, it occupied most of Mesec’s time. Even when they weren’t around him, he was preoccupied with thoughts of them. Were all parents like this? Did Ampere feel like this for every single one of her foals? Surely that would be overwhelming, and Mesec only knew of four.

Suddenly, Mesec had the strangest feeling that Lucius was just goading him. “Will you please go keep an eye on them?” Without another word - but certainly with a haughty chuckle, Lucius took off. Thus relieved of some stress, Mesec was now free to… do what?

Worry some more, most likely. He needed to get a job in the Edge and soon, perhaps that would help distract him.

Frowning at himself, Mesec continued to wander along the cliffs. Although he had warned his children to stay away from them, it didn’t do any harm to keep an eye out. Besides, he might chance upon some company here or at least find peace in the chilly sea breeze.
