The brief rest was a quiet affair. Adam coiled his massive form, allowing his Blooming Vitality to work in tandem with his natural regeneration. Lilith, true to her observant nature, moved with silent grace around him. She didn't speak, but Adam could feel her keen, psychic attention examining his wounds, the scorch marks, and the lingering traces of venom.
After a while, Adam broke the silence. "I have two other companions," he said, his voice a low rumble in the dim cavern. "Alice, a Voidweaver Panther, and Ignis, a Solar Drake hatchling. They are my… family, in this place. I expect you to get along with them."
Lilith paused her silent inspection, her crystalline blue eyes meeting his. Her telepathic reply was calm and carried a soothing, almost melodic quality. 'I understand the importance of a pack, even an unusual one. I will do my best to be… cordial. You have my word. There is no need for concern.'
