It's been a while since we got out of town.

He met @Hieronymous in the run just before sunrise and together, the two leaders ventured out into the territories beyond their respective claims. Quicksilver had been looking forward to getting out with his best friend for the day, far enough away to gain that little taste of freedom he craved - a change of scenery to provide a much-needed reprieve from the usual routine of duty. He loved his family, adored them, and felt he'd fit in well with his new role as Emperor, but sometimes a break was necessary.

Dawn began to lighten the land as they departed Ullarcraig, and the friends shared the beginning of their trip exchanging updates of one another's families.

“We might share grandchildren some day,” he laughed, having definitely warmed to the idea of his offspring marrying into Vanderfell - so long as it was not expected of them. It still amused him greatly that he and Reiko had been blessed with two sons and a daughter, while Hiero and Ira had reared two daughters and a son. “I hope they all get along when we introduce them.”

At Hiero's teasing, the druid shot him a sideways glance. He narrowed his eyes, though any suggestion of frustration was betrayed by the fullness of his smile. Quicksilver hopped over a rugged stone that stuck out of the earth, and upon landing he swayed to bump playfully to his friend's mottled shoulder. “Don't act like you don't love that idea,” he laughed.

He was a fresh parent, and grandchildren were not in his near future. Quicksilver was hopeful that he and Reiko could rear another litter or two before a new generation would come along, “we both know you'll be the soft one.” Who was he kidding? The druid had seen how Hieronymous had turned to putty when his own little ones turned those puppy-dog eyes on him. To imagine as him anything but kind and generous was not possible.

Quicksilver looked ahead again, and caught sight of the dark hide of some... goats? He squinted, seeing how their coats were less coarse and more wool, and he quickened his stride. “Sheep on the menu, Hiero,” he barked, and flagged his tail enthusastically.
