Unexpected comfort
It's been a rough week since Elara passed and the whole burial was earlier in the week, it was on everyone but the kids, Sendak, and Zarkon were hit the hardest. Coran and the paladins came with their families after Sendak contacted them and were devastated, but soon Bellatrix, Zanthea and their families went home. Zarkon of right now couldn't sleep, he was still getting used to being alone after her being around for so long. He was staring at nothing when out of the blue, two very old Great Danes approached the bed and sniffed where Elara used to sleep and whined at Zarkon. For once, he felt pain for the two dogs, they were very close to Elara and now she's gone.
"She's not coming back, I'm sad too, trust me." Zarkon said, frowning sadly.
Scorpio kept sniffing, searching around the room but saddest part was, he was blind now and really old, but still wanted to find his real owner. Virgo laid her head on the bed and whined, she was just as old and was deeply depressed. Zarkon eventually gave in.
"Alright come on, we're in the same sort of pain." He said, allowing both dogs to get into bed with him and they snuggled up to him sensing uneasiness and sadness.
"I always did like you two... I just didn't want to look too soft to her." Zarkon said, petting their heads, his heart genuinely ached for the Scopio and Virgo.
"There's nothing we can do now or ever. We all loved her, not as much as I did. If I could bring her back, I would but, she doesn't want it that way. That best we can do now is mourn..."
