The Ties that Bind us

Siblings

It had been a few weeks since Hutsgalor was attacked, Mala and Dagur had people sent to help rebuild the city and help the people. Mala's reasoning for it was they helped our family now we help theres, Dagur had been helping with the rebuilding as well, the twins often joined their father when he journeyed to Hutsgalor, Finn on other hand didn't. When they left Finn often stayed behind with Mala who gladly accepted his presents, Mala had grown to love the blonde child as he reminded her of the twins when they were younger and to her that memory was amazing to have around. Finn was still settling into living on Defenders of the Wing, his nightmare he has often found himself climbing into bed with one of the twins. Neither of them were bothered by Finn joining them most nights, they knew what having nightmares so bad that you couldn't sleep felt like.

The sun had started rising over the island, Finn unsurprisingly had gone to one of the twins' beds after he had a nightmare. Finn was sound asleep next to the redhead girl, who was awake. Leyla was leaning her head against the wall, Finn was using her shoulder as a pillow as he usually did. Dak had woken up earlier than both of them to go to Hutsgalor with Dagur. Leyla would've joined them, but after Finn's latest nightmare she didn't want to.

Leyla was reading a book which was on her bedside table, when Mala walked in. "Throk was wondering if you two wanted to help him with something." Mala tells them.

"Yes!" Finn yells sitting up.

"How long have you been awake?" Leyla asks the boy.

"A few minutes, I was listening to you read." Finn tells her.

"Okay," Leyla responds, "Let's go."

"Race you!" Finn yells running out of the room.

"Oh come on!" Leyla yells chasing the boy.

Mala laughs at the two of them following them to where Throk was, Throk was feeding the eruptodon waiting for the two kids.

"Good morning Throk!" Finn yells.

"Good morning Finngard." Throk replies.

"So what do you need help with?" Leyla asks the man.

"I need help, getting lumber and with the eruptodon." Throk replies.

"Okay," Finn smiles.

"Let's get started." Leyla tells them both.

....

Dagur and Dak were flying to Hutsgalor, the island was about a 4 hour flight from the defenders of the wing which is why they left so early.

"I wish Ley came with us." Dak groans leaning back on his staddle.

"I know." Dagur replies, looking at his son who dramatically sighed again, "Well be back tomorrow morning."

"I knew that." Dak responds, "How much longer?"

"Not very long." Dagur replies, Dak again dramatically sighed,

"This is so boring." Dak tells him.

"You've told me." Dagur chuckles, "We should be there before midday."

"Thank Thor." Dak sighs.

Dagur and Dak land in the middle of Hutsgalor, the village had started to look like a town again thanks to Mala and Dagur's help. Elbone was one of the people who were left behind, so even though he hated fishing he hadn't tried changing his job again so the village would have food. Elbone was working at his booth when the two of them showed up. Dak jumped off Winger running towards the booth.

"Hi Elbone!" Dak yells.

"Hey, Dak." Elbone replies.

"How is everyone?" Dak asks the older man.
