Alwyn was indeed watching, as he carefully made his way inside the infirmary, staying close by the door and observing for the most part. He did not know much about the field of medicine other than how to apply bandages and tourniquets, and if need be make some basic poultices and cures from...

Alwyn, now more in his element about military matters, nodded enthusiastically towards his cousins first, and he picked up a bit of confidence which was sourly needed. He replied with a bit more pep to his talk regarding the Hide, focusing a bit more on Kinza since she seemed the most...

Alwyn chuckled softly as Finnian kept up with him, and then placed his order. He, also, picked chocolate, because the availability of the cocoa and sugar were not always guaranteed, and did his best to listen to his son and help him to be comfortable. He knew that a place such as this, just...

Alwyn squeezed encouragingly on the other todd’s shoulder as he nodded and wrote up another letter for Swifttail’s master, stated that he was being drafted for emergency repairs and would not be available for the days required, but that if he did well, there may be some Guard contracts coming...

Alwyn listened quietly as the younger fox realized just how much danger he was in. It was indeed a stupid thing to accept such a challenge, and even more foolish not to back down or let him handle it quietly behind the scenes with the help of his mother to ensure this rat was the one who backed...

While talking to his cousin, Alwyn kept his son in his vision, watching the tearful goodbye between him and his lizard-thing friend, Cricket. His son had often talked about her and how much she had helped him, and he remembered how she had tried to save him when that house fire had occurred. She...

Although Alwyn loved Finnian, and did indeed joke around with him much of the time, he was indeed taking Mr. Fairpaws seriously with the focus that he would as if he were on duty. After all, keeping his son’s friend alive was, at least to him, at least as valuable as keeping one of the many...

Alwyn could rigorously control most aspects of his emotions at the end of the day-after all, he, like many unfortunate younger Guardsbeasts-in-training, had once been assigned to stand in front of the Ministry of War and act as stone-faced as possible while doing so. That was not particularly...

Alwyn shook his head at Lorcan as he watched the crewbeasts during the work. “Been on vessels of her class, smaller, and larger, but never had the privilege during my training to be able to protect the Empress and the beasts she wants protected on their travels, though I suppose my role has...

Alwyn maintained a professional silence, posture, and expression as he stood a bit off to the side during Gyles’s speech, dressed not in his Stoatorian Guard armor or uniform, but in the more practical for the sea leather armor that a marine might wear. He wore only his longsword at his side...

Alwyn listened intently to the other, younger todd as he spoke-it was, after all, a potential matter of life and death. Duels to “first blood” could mean many things, and that could often mean mortal wounds that a beast could die from later, whether from infection or other complications. It was...

Alwyn was indeed playing along, enjoying the time that he could bond with his son. It reminded him, too, of Annabelle in many ways, how they had often bantered in Storm’s Peak and the Ryalorian estate in Bully Harbor. He was so quick-witted, just like her. But he wanted to show his son he could...

Alwyn relaxed a little more as the tension seemed to ease with Jeshal’s reply and with Falun’s teasing, which grated on him a little, but he supposed it was deserved. It was fairly well-known that the Ryalor children were kept under something of a tight leash, although he and Anastasia were the...

Alwyn was taken a bit aback by Finnian’s blunt candor, but, it also made him exceptionally happy. More than he had been in over a decade. His son was fitting in right at home, here with him, as it should be, and he was content, safe, and healthy, and he would burn down the entire Imperium if...

Alwyn let out a long, hearty chuckle at the antics that had just transpired, one of the very few that were genuine in the days since he had lost Annabelle. His son was quick on the uptake, and he knew instinctively that he would be a vixenkiller just like his father in the future. Of course he...
