Welcome to Gaia! ::

Pasa nods his thanks but he sure looks rather pale as he tucks it up against his stomach. The normal dark purple edges around his eyes and mouth are a pale lavender color.

**dont worry... he's going to survive... but I wonder... what happens to a creature that would normally hibernate, when the body temperatures drops below a certain point, if his core temp drops but not the outside of him. scarrrrrrry....**

**methinks a cup of hot tea might have done a bit more good... but ye know... he's not going to die... just sleep fer a long time....**

Pasa yawns and puts his arms around the tiny dragon, hugging him close, as he drifts off into a deep dreamless sleep. He hasn't hibernated for some time and perhaps it will do him some good. His home doesn't have snow, but it does have a cold period when the younger serpentines sleep and the older ones do only that which is necessary to keep the community alive, healthy and strong... taking turns sleeping with only a skeletal group of individuals awake at any one time.

Bez looks up as Em enters, his face hopeful but it falls a bit when he sees it Emnast. He still finds it hard to understand how such a young dragon could house such an old mage, so he doesn't believe him to be of much help.

"'lo, Em... I see she's turned ye loose." he mutters softly trying to get Tam to drink more water, but the lioness refuses instead she just sighs and goes back to nuzzling her twins who are once again nursing.

Tam lifts her head slightly and gives him a tiny nod, than lowers it with great care.

Bez flinches and sighs. "Don't listen to her. Head still hurts, not sure what to do about it. And she is still not talking. Though with that sore of a throat, I probably wouldn't talk either. What worries me is that she's running a fairly high fever."

The lioness ears perk up a little at his offer and she nods, again only a little but it is obvious she would like some very much.

Bez groans. "Why didn't I think of that? As painful as it sound, Em... throw some lemon juice into that tea as well. It will help promote healing. At least that is what she has always told me." He picks up the cubs who are no longer nursing and starts to place them back in their cradle, but a great white paw stops him.

Tam shakes her head and pushes his hands back down to the bed. It seems she wants his girls beside her.

Bez nods, but suggests he take them to the box to see if he can get them to use it first.

Bez nods and helps steady the bowl for Tam, who laps it up carefully.

"Actually, Em... not sure ye can do shadow magic anymore...." says Bez thoughtfully. "Ye were wiped clean right and given a new start... well clean of most things... I think they left ye with yer memories so'd ye not repeat the horrors of the past. But Electrum dragons... well they're not the most magical of dragons... and considered good creatures... all of them... of course golds were considered good, too. Someday yer going to have to tell me what happened... as one fallen to another, I think I can propably understand it a bit more than some of the others."

The lioness nods and rests her head on her paws. She doesn't look like she feels better though and a glance at Bez's worried face shows she probably doesn't.

Bez hands him the bowl and takes the cubs to the sand box, to encourage them to go. Fortunately by now, they use it far more than they do now. Instinct is a wonderful thing and although Bez doesn't actually care to walk around in cat form, he's done it enough, he knows a bit about their nature.
