"I did it!" Morok clenched his fists in triumph before hugging those he already considered like his in-laws. "Father, mother, I won't let you down."
"Please, don't call me like that." Orion and Jirni said in unison as their stomachs churned.
"While we are at it, do you have any relative who's still single? My Little Flower can use a hand in choosing her partner." Orion asked both Morok and Nalrond.
"Dad, stop it!" Phloria became beet red, trying and failing to put an end to the discussion.
"Sadly, no. I'm the last survivor of my village." Nalrond said, drawing compassion from the small crowd around him.
"Thank the gods, no. As far as I know, I'm the only one my father experimented upon. You don't have to worry about him, I got him killed." Morok said, making Jirni and Orion wonder if it was too late to take back their offer.
