The Jerboa who rode upon his whithers had woken from his slumber, hopping from his burrow deep within the child's down feathers and skipping up the black one's maneless neck to stand atop his poll and peer down at the smaller females. Waving to them kindly, Dohv would apologise for the boy's boyish behaviour if he could. The truth was, Dohv was at least ten times Damascus's age and therefore ten times as wise.
When the girl spoke, Damascus turned his dazzling eyes to face her and hear her explanation of the events. It was only when she started to bluber that his eyes sunk an his brows began to raise with even more confusion, his lips drooping. had he done that?
"Sorry!" He bellowed "Sorry I be, not mean I hurt you to make!" His wings fluttered with humiliation as he spoke, sinking at their lowest joints and curling forth to offer her a feathery hand of comfort. "Levolia" He tested the word upon his own tongue (though still got it drastically wrong), eyes cast skyward as he wondered about the land she spoke of.
