Cale enjoyed the petting of his feathers and horns. It made him purr just a little bit louder. So he smiled happily and nodded his head at him “Thank you. No one else but my mate and you have called me beautiful before” he said as he laid there happily.

This kind of thing went on over the next week. He got a little bit more used to him and a bit more trusting and they settled into a routine. They took turns keeping the egg warm but he mostly took upon the job his old mate had and went hunting for food and anything else they would need and of course each day he sang for Lorien as per agreement. Though soon he started to feel a bit… off.
In the cave he laid off to the side a bit with a hum as he thought he simply needed to have a rest for the day. A small nap and he should feel just fine. So he laid on the cool floor with a sigh not really taking notice of Lorien at the moment.
