Twenty-Five

Hawke wasn’t the only one who had leveled up. Nadia’s bodyguard Gzzatt had made it to eleventh level. Gosto and Alba and had reached level ten, a major milestone. Tava had made it to thirteenth, and Olaf and Grognard to seventh. The two newbie Eternals were still the weakest links in the team, but so far they had handled things well. Even Digger had dinged all the way to fourteen.

And then there were the Drakofoxes, who had been born a couple of days ago, the definition of complete noobs when they set off towards the Northern Foothills.

Blaze (Drakofox)

Level 5 Draconid (Epic Elite)

<Killing demons is fun!> Blaze proclaimed.

<Not so much if the demons kill us,> Luna sent back. <Don’t be a dumbass!>

The two kits began wrestling, their yips and barks mixed with their eerily humanlike laughter. Hawke watched them with a mixture of affection and concern. Their speech had changed; they sounded like they were eight or nine years old rather than toddlers. And he was sure they’d grown in size as well. About as big as a medium dog, not counting their long tail.

Tava walked over to him. “They are lovely, aren’t they?”

“There are as cute as a pair of buttons, if buttons could deep fry you,” he replied.

He – and Tava – should probably be more worried than they were, but the bond with the two kits worked both ways. Hawke felt extremely protective of the little monsters; their happiness made him happy, and even the idea of their being hurt, or losing them, put him in a murderous mood. Tava and he had become parents. Not exactly what he’d expected when he’d found that golden egg during his first Lair expedition. That had been another ‘gift’ far above what someone at his level should have gained. Sooner or later, he suspected that someone was going to present him with a bill for all the ‘free stuff’ he had gotten along the way.

“I’m going to take Blaze with me on the next chamber entry,” he said. “He wants to do it, and he’s turned into the toughest critter in the Party other than me. His Resistance value against Elements and Forces has increased with his level; he’s now at 50% versus everything.”

Tava thought about for a moment before she nodded in agreement. “Luna can remain with me. She is more cautious, and she prefers to use spells. Spells her brother taught her after he learned them from you.”

“I didn’t teach him anything. Little bastard picked them right off my head.”

<Not a bastard!> Blaze protested, although his mental tone indicated he wasn’t serious. The good thing about telepaths was that they understood when someone was joking around. <A Nine-Tailed Kitsune fathered us by fertilizing our Dragon Egg and using Fae magic to make us breed true. But you are my hatch-father, Hawke. Never a bastard will I be, for I have two fathers.>

Hawke didn’t ask how the kit knew those things. Maybe some sort of genetic memory transfer, or just plain Fae witchery.
