Valstrath and Razeth followed at a distance of Slygotha and Nidhogg. Razeth caught small fish that swam to close. Valstrath was partially in his mind. What would it be like living amongst their enemies? When would they see father again? Was their sisters and brother alright? So many uncertainties, it was impossible to phantom their future.
Slygotha kept acutely aware of her surroundings while swimming. She did not want to loose track of any of her remaining wyrmlings, and was focused on her goal. She remained stoic on the outside, but a fire raged in her heart, the humiliation of being robbed stung deep to her core, and she wanted to utterly destroy they who did this to her.
Aeval scooted over closer and would watch over her friend as best she could while Kali got the much needed rest her body required. She stroked her hair soothingly and hummed softly, more to comfort herself really. She'd been so frightened when she'd been dragged away and was a bit clingy at the moment.
Valstrath slowed as he got the sensation of being watched. He looked around nervously and tried to find the source of the feeling. That was when he saw a small child in the distance with a red scarf covering most of his hair. He made a soft call to Slygotha in fear.

Slygotha acknowledged Valstrath's warning, turning to look for that which he had seen. Her eyes fell upon an unassuming boy with limpid eyes that seemed to bore through all of them. Though he seemed so harmless and small, the intensity of his gaze made Slygotha's skin prickle. The fact that he was watching them as they swam underwater also seemed unusual to her.Valstrath slowed as he got the sensation of being watched.

Razeth swam along obvious to his brother's concerns, he was focused on controlling his stone.

Razeth and Valstrath followed Slygotha's instructions. Razeth however, chose to remain close to the bottom of the river instead of in the silt like his siblings.
Slygotha's jaws parted, a low rumble escaping. Her brightly colored frills displayed her agitation. Realizing that this one was not what he seemed, she decided she had better feel out the situation first before making any moves. "If you are talking about the puny humans and dragonkin that attacked my nest while I was minding my own business, they got exactly what they deserved. But I didn't send enough to cause you problems, unless my mate wrought a line of destruction between our den and the place where those creatures took my Nidhogg, handling her like some common food animal. I only killed in self defense those that would have harmed myself and my brood." Slygotha puffed out her chest defensively.
