I'm A Mommy Now

Regal and I are packing up right now to check for land space that we can turn into a home. Regal is still unusually quiet and distant. Should I ask him what's wrong? I guess I should.

So, I talked to Regal and after a while of pushing he finally admitted that after our flying classes, Beu put him on the spot in front of all the farmhands and yelled at him about how incorrect his behavior was. I almost started laughing at him, I let out a few chuckles and told him he deserved it but like always, his response was a simple eye roll and a shrug of his shoulders. I did see a slight smile emerge from his face so he wasn't all that grouchy. Now we are just feeding the argents and making sure we got everything before taking off.

Ha, I'm a mommy now, to a juvenile giant ground sloth I have named Kathy. She is white with a black beak and black paws. Me and Regal rescued her after she and her momma fell down a cliff during an attack made by wild direwolves. Her mother, unfortunately was killed by the electrical blob creatures that lived in the icy waters.

Regal and I were just flying peacefully over the lands looking for new land. I was watching all of the animals on the ground while Regal was staying on high alert. We only flew a short distance before he pointed out a land that seemed perfect for the tribe. It did indeed seem nice and it wasn't that far so the distance wouldn't be that of a challenge.

We scouted it and there was a herd of giant ground sloths and a few rocks that needed clearing. Me and Regal landed the two birds on some rocks and discussed what to do with the ground sloths and how to move them out the area. While discussing options, a direwolf pack came in and started attacking the ground sloths. That's when Kathy's mother tried protecting Kathy by keeping her behind her but they were at the adge of the cliff, when a direwolf tried going after them. Kathy's mother accidently bumped into Kathy, pushing her off the cliff. When she turned behind her to try and catch Kathy, she was attacked by the direwolf again, knocking her and the wolf both down the cliff.

During the heat of the moment, I told Whiplash to start flying before signaling him to dive down the cliff and catch the fallen baby. It was a close call, with Whiplash almost getting caught in the water himself but we were able to pull Kathy out and take her back to land. She was shaken and scared so Whiplash just pinned her down until she relaxed. Only a short time later did the electrical blob creatures stunned both Kathy's mom and the direwolf before eating them alive. Yikes.

I went to find where Regal went, I saw that he already killed the dire wolves and the remaining of the ground sloth herd. After he stopped complaining about Kathy, I took her back home and placed her in the arena so she could calm down while he wanted to scout for anymore predators. The pups were happy to greet her and instantly wanted to start playing.

I alerted Elias about the find and he agreed that it sounded like a good place to settle. He said once Regal returned, we will discuss having a few tribesmen go over there and build a fence barrier around it to keep animals out before building the houses and lands the karakul would roam on. Turns out this is the first move they ever had so everyone was pretty excited for it as well as nervous because of the predators.
