Kiss Me Hard Before You Go, II

Ukko arrived back to their home after Shuule and Set finished eating and cleaning up. He had eaten, bathed, and drank his fill. The male walked with his chest puffed out, being congratulated by a few fellow eagles as he left the water hole, none of them mentioning the events of the previous day. As he kept telling Shuule, child loss was something that was a part of their lives. His fellow birds were happy for him that he didn't lose his spouse, meaning his own life would have been effectively over, and they were proud of him for conceiving even just one egg. He was in the home stretch now, just needing to incubate the child effectively.
