SO GIVE ME HOPE IN THE DARKNESS THAT I WILL SEE THE LIGHT
'CAUSE OH THAT GAVE ME SUCH A FRIGHT
'CAUSE OH THAT GAVE ME SUCH A FRIGHT
He knows, vaguely, that something is wrong with his grandson. but he also knows it's not immediately life-threatening and he is the parent currently in charge of the twins, and he can't leave them alone. He's restless with the knowledge, with the magic being the only link between himself and Jesper, and so by the time Nihlus returns to him, not even the tempting doe-eyes his lover is making at him are enough to keep him from being quite instantly where his grandson is.
With the long-honed instincts of a warrior, he takes in their surroundings first. They're in Icicle Isle, but on the Nerine side. The next thing he locks eyes on is his grandson - and the bear wrapped around him. For a moment the magician's ears are pinned flat against his head, his eyes shining fire, his teeth bared. The bay holds on to his self-control just long enough to ascertain that the bear isn't the threat in this situation, still there is a growl under his breath that he has to fight to contain, because seeing the giant predator wrapped around his currently tiny grandson pushes a whole lot of buttons. Still, with a few deep breaths he can acknowledge that the bear is doing a good thing, keeping Jesper warm. When Brennen is sure he is as calm as can be, he approaches them the rest of the way.
"Jesper," there is still a dangerous rumble to his voice, an undertone that promises violence; but the violence isn't for them. The affection, however, is; he touches the fox's shoulder with all of the gentleness the tone of his voice would have you believing he can't manage. Amber eyes flick to the bear, assessing. "Can you heal it?" the words are brusque; he isn't a practiced healer, so it will be better off to leave it to her if she can do it. But if she can't, he won't leave Jesper in pain for a moment longer, and he will harness the magic to heal him if it kills him. In the meantime, he turns his gaze back to the man he still sees as a child, one of his tribe. "Who did this to you?"
