"So this is Fawn, and Yasmin, and Hebi and..." [Sun Family]

Void never had to worry about bringing anyone new into the village. He was struck with concern that mother wouldn't think it was good enough, or the thatched roofs were tacky, or the sun was too hot and there weren't enough rooms for the kids. He'd never been so self-conscious about the living space he'd lovingly found for the group. But Void tried not to worry, he said his mother was perfect, and he had no doubts that she would be about this place. Void skipped on ahead, hoping to catch anyone and warn them before hand about the new, if a little similar, face. He chuckled as Eira explained all the siblings to mother, it made Void feel a little proud himself. As odd a bunch as they were, to the eldest, they were great, and Void loved them all, to an almost painful level. the grey thing lifted its head from Void's shoulder, beginning to purr a little as it's eyes looked up. Void followed, grinning up to Mori. She sat in a tree, gazing down at them, bow ready but not aimed, simply watching carefully. "Moriiiii we're back! And alive!" Void called up. Mori glanced to him, before her grumpy façade gave in, and the girl chuckled, jumping gracefully from the tree, putting her bow away as she did. "Welcome back Void, glad to see you're all safe... But who is this?" Mori replied, looking to Chester with a curious frown. "Breaking your own rule about bringing in strangers, Void?" Void glanced back and forth, before wafting a hand in front of Mori. "No no no! Mori, this is our mother." Void explained quickly. Mori's frown straightened, scoffing once, perhaps surprised to hear an answer she'd never predict. "I... I see. I can see why that would make sense too." Mori stated, looking from their mother to Eira, giving the latter a quick, stern look, before softening into a relieved smile. The pink-haired girl walked a little closer to their mother, trying her hardest to keep up her proud aura. "It's good to finally meet you, mother." Mori said, standing there awkwardly, unable to really process how exactly to otherwise greet their mother. Mori cleared her throat, looking to Void as Cory spoke. Void heard the disappearance of someone else, and looked a little pale about Meinu of all people leaving. "I saw her go, she was into the distance before I could stop her. I'd recommend not going to find her, Meinu will return on her own." Mori stated, before lifting a brow. "By the way, where is Comet?" Mori asked, looking around members of the group, eyes glaring as they stopped on Draiko. 

It was dark, and Akvan could feel the weight of Comet's head slowly press onto his own, as the little boy drifted in and out of wanting to sleep. Akvan was discovering how he wouldn't feel tired, however, could also feel a strain to his body, like being out of the ring for so long began to take effect on the Sun child, to a point where it felt like he was forcing himself away from being sucked into it, and any relaxation in Akvan's concentration would have him disappear into the crystal. And he certainly wasn't going to do that right now, Comet needed him awake. The poor boy had enough of a rough day, Akvan just hoped things in this village would be calm, though seeing as they were all seeing their mother for the first time, Akvan doubted it. In the moonlight Akvan followed the path that Chester had taken, basically walking in her memory, making sure he didn't get lost. Akvan relied on his own vision when he saw lights ahead, and a little yawn above his head, "It's o-o-over there, father." Comet mumbled, rubbing his eyes a little and pointing with his hand towards the cluster of lights. Akvan smiled, "Nice little place, d-do you all live there?" Akvan asked, stopping to look over the small village a little before continuing to walk. "Y-yeah, Void f-f-found it for us, b-before I was b-born, he fixed i-it and made s-s-sure it was safe for us." Comet replied, keeping sleep at bay by talking. Akvan smiled, "Sounds like a nice b-big brother." He commented, Comet hummed in agreement, before both went silent, hearing the echoing voices up ahead. Some sort of commotion was going down, and one girl, Eira, was yelling loud enough for the pair to hear. Akvan chuckled, "D-do you get lost often then?" He asked. Comet giggled a little, leaning his head onto his fathers. "Y-y-yeah, D-draiko wanders o-o-off a lot, a-a-and forgets I'm f-f-following." Comet admitted. Akvan picked up the pace, "B-better get t-to them before she fights Draiko then, y-yeah?" Akvan asked, Comet giggling again. 
Walking faster towards the group, unable to wave his one arm, as it was keeping hold of Comet, Akvan could only use his voice. "Your b-brother is safe." He stated over to them, slowing his pace as he reached the group, glancing to Chester, then amongst the children that were slowly gathering. Comet began waving his little arms, tears in his eyes, "Eira! Y-y-your s-s-safe! D-draiko a-and I w-were really really w-worried!" Comet called down, tears of relief in his eyes that both his sister was fine, and he himself was back in the village and safe. 

"D-down we go." Akvan said to Comet, kneeling down for the excited boy to jump off his shoulders, little legs hitting the ground as Comet's tears were replaced with chuckled, happy to see everyone. Akvan got to his feet, giving Chester a glance, before looking around at all the children. They all had a bit of him in them, as well as their mother, Akvan could cry just looking at them all. But he didn't want to seem weak right now. They seemed distracted right now about Comet being safe, Void giving the little guy a hug, before backing away to let others greet him. Some children looked to Akvan, and although he wasn't paying attention, he could feel their uneasy gazes burning into him. He needed to remind himself that to other Sun children, Akvan appeared as nothing but a hollow body, a ghost, soulless. Akvan wondered if it would present any problems, before hearing Chester say something to him. Akvan moved to look to her, yet again with a neutral expression, before glancing sideways at those still watching them. Suddenly, Akvan put on a smile, "H-hey, Chester." He replied simply, hoping the smile didn't seem too forced. He put a hand into his pocket, drawing up the ring, "You d-dropped this." He said, holding the ring over to her. 

Once Chester went to meet Comet, Akvan dropped the smile, looking to some of the others now. Comet was meanwhile sniffling again, as Chester introduced herself. "F-f-f-father found me d-d-don't worry... Are, a-are you r-really my m-mother? We d-d-didn't think we had one, but... y-y-you look like a really n-nice one." Comet started blubbering, more nervous around his mother, for some reason, perhaps assuming he needed to act smarter around her than Akvan. It made the father chuckle a little, smiling down to the little boy, before up to someone in particular. Draiko, if Chester's memories were correction. Akvan's expression went stern. "You must be Draiko? I-if I'm c-correct, you were the one t-to abandon Comet?" Akvan asked. Draiko glared, before huffing, glancing away. "I'm sorry, w-was that an apology? B-because your little b-brother could have d-died out there. Would y-you be s-saying sorry if thanks to you, Comet w-was lost forever?" Akvan asked, not holding back against Draiko, he knew how to deal with this kind of stubborn attitude, and it didn't matter if this was their first time meeting, Akvan wasn't stopping himself. Draiko finally looked to him, but with a glare. "I don't have to take that from you, ghost." Draiko replied. Akvan's glare softened for a moment, eyes dropping to the ground. He let the pain pass, knowing Draiko wasn't wrong, and lifted his eyes back up, even more determined. "W-well, like it or not, this ghost is your f-father, young man."
