As the happy reunion commenced, Kiion wandered over to Kekarn, bowing his head in friendly greeting before sitting in front of the wolf.
"Hello, purple guy. My name's Ciirsyn Kiion, but you can call me Kiion. Do you like Kekarn, or something else?" he asked, giving Kek a lazy smile. Always willing to meet new wolves, friendly ones anyway, Kiion was determined to make Deimos and company feel at home and comfortable in his pack.
Atropos, not noticing Bia's angst, turned to Deimos and spoke words Bia probably cringed at. "Lachi is gone, Uncle Dei. She...." Atropos stopped with a chagrined look on her face, ducking her head. She knew where her sister was, but knew she wasn't allowed to tell them. But Lachesis had been gone for a while now. Her sisters were getting worried.
Deimos was overwhelmed, but not in a bad way. Family swarming around him filled him with joy, but he noticed the absence of one wolf's affections, and when Atropos told him of Lachesis' absence, he frowned and sought out Bia, approaching her without hesitation to give her a light nuzzle.
He had forgiven her long ago, and was truly glad to see her safe.
"What happened, mother?"

Bia tried to hold back a happy whine when her son nuzzled her and she softly licked his muzzle before bracing herself. Her ears fell back unhappily and she looked over at Atropos worried for a moment before her blood red gaze moved back to Deimos.
"Everything happened so fast...and the girls are always together...but when I caught up with them...Lachesis was gone. She's been missing for longer then usual Deimos...this is different then her usual little...habits." Bia's voice quivered and her eyes misted over. She had left her daughter, her two sons abandoned them to raise themselves, and now she had abandoned Lachesis. True that the femme was full grown but in her heart Bia felt she would always be responsible for the girls.
She was still crushed over Moirai and though no one else probably shared her hope she would have given quite a bit to see her daughter alive. It wasn't Moirai's fault that had turned out the way she had...it was her fault, she had been a bad mother. The triplets oddities had made her afraid, but this time she had forced herself to stay put instead of running, how could she abandon Moirai's children and repeat her fatal mistakes?

Ehrek watched nervously as wolves emerged from everywhere, fur and legs everywhere, his eyes twitched nervously to each new face that came into focus. The young male's ears angled down as he watched as they were surrounded by the local pack's members. He could only see the faces and hear the voices of six of these wolves but his eyes and nose told him that there were more than that. It was unusual for the charcoal blue wolf to in such a presence, before it was normally around his mate and Kek, sometimes Bia and a few others but never in so much company.
This was all too new for him.
The only solace he had to fall back upon was the loveable lug Kekarn and his powerful mate Deimos. Slowly Ehrek subtly moved to hide himself between his friends, gluing himself to his mate's side. It was when Clotho nudged him that his attention fell upon his niece, by Deimos' union.
"Clotho..." he murmured as she took his mate's side. "Glad you'r-UMF!" Ehrek fell upon his back as the sister of the fate assaulted his face with happy kisses. "Atropie! Glad to see you too," he chuckled as he nosed her to retract from him, wagging all the while.
Ehrek raised his head from the ground and looked to Kekarn. He looked distracted. Giving a short bark, he smiled and wagged at his friend with an expression of innocent questioning. "What's the matter?"

Deimos' frown grew, but he gave his mother another gentle nuzzle when he saw the look of hopelessness and guilt pass through her eyes. "Relax, mother. It isn't your fault in the least. Lachesis was always...different. Even more so than her sisters."
One thing he knew for certain was that wherever she went, she would always return. She felt a strong, unending desire to protect her sisters, and would until the day she died.
"She'll be back," he said with a sad smile, knowing how much Bia tore herself up still over the past. "And so will Phobos, some day." His brother leaving had bothered him, but he knew what wanderlust felt like, and couldn't begrudge the black male for wanting to travel, especially since he was still in search of that blind female he had met so long ago...
Troubled, he turned his attention to Hephaestus, who, until now, had stayed back a ways, letting Dione have her time with her grandson. But now he greeted the big male with a bow of his head, tail wagging gently, and the two of them caught up on time lost, uncle to nephew.
