Although he had not yet decided on which rank to join - it was still such a mystery to him where he fit - Mesec was settling into life within the Edge. He and Vesper both seemed to be, though his days were filled with worries about Virga and whether his son was safe. For now, he felt like the best thing to do was to stay put in the Edge so that Virga would be able to find him again.

When the call came from the Queen, Lyra nipped at Mesec’s ears as he dozed - rousing him and alerting him. She did not want to waste any time - there were so many faces at meeting and she wanted to meet them all. The young pup was growing but she was still small enough that Mesec worried about her when she went off on her own so he woke up easily, casting off the drowsiness as quickly as he could and started his legs moving.

There were already quite a few gathered when Mesec arrived so he did his best not to disturb them but he moved to stand beside @Sacre, offering his brother a warm smile in greeting as he settled in. Lucius was off hunting somewhere, but Lyra yelped in delight when she spotted the two foxes sitting in front of Sacre. She promptly attempted to gracefully clamour down Mesec’s neck and then down his legs but promptly fell from Mesec’s shoulder in the process. The squirming black pup quickly righted herself and then went to greet the two creatures that looked so like her.

It came as a shock when the demigod heard his name and the word Glazier. In the Throat, it had been his ambition to become a crafter and here… he couldn’t believe that he was getting the chance now. “Thank you, I will do my best.” Just as he had caught Sacre’s beaming smile when his own promotion had been announced, Mesec returned the favour a moment later - his silver eyes brightening at the mention of his brother being promoted to Moon Doctor.

And then there was more excitement a moment later when Tembovu began speaking. Not with the great glass spikes that shook and rose from the earth - which were mildly concerning but less cage-like than the glass wall had been - but when he announced that Roskuld was the General! Two of his younger siblings, here with him in the Edge and doing so well! “You can count me in for the patrols, General.”
