Saint Sergio
He had a point there. Virain had given his mother problems when he was young. It had, in fact, been Dem that had found him in the woods and brought him back home. So while she didn't have a son of her own she could see the logic in the words. "I suppose they do." And she nodded her head along with it.
Ascale moved his head so that it butted against Dem's side. However, he did seem to enjoy the attention he was getting from Klaas again.
Hearing that the boy wanted a familiar that he could ride she tilted her head some. "Well, Janarim are big enough to ride. Stubborn though. Maybe a Kinfa if you like the idea of flying? My mate has one." Dem didn't actually have a mount since she didn't like the idea of not being in control of where she was going. And with her familiars she likely wouldn't have had a say in it if she did ride them.
