Asura looked down at the sweet thing that Sanestra was holding. She looked to the thief smiling.
"You have done well. Thank you."
How could those humans do this to one of their own? How could they leave their young, their helpless young alone in the world. How could they have left her alone... She was giving these children a shot to be members of a loving and healthy family. Asura reached down and stroked the child's hair gently.
"Yes, he should get some food and love before his journey."
She smiled down to the small prince.
"You will have a happy, full life here. You will be well cared for and loved. You never need to fear small one."
She looked up to Sanestra smiling.
"You would be such a wonderful mother, why have you never adopted one of the children?"
The child had cuddled warm and safe against Sanestra and had fallen asleep. Sanestra's voice always had that effect on her, it sounded so sweet and loving. Asura could have never thought about having a better adviser.
