Bedtime
"I would be honored!" she said gladly and gracefully placed her hand over her chest.
"Splendid!" Master Woodstock beamed. "Now, we feast!"
The guests applauded and began to make their way to the dining hall.
"I didn't see that coming," Dai chuckled.
"Why else do you think he taught the cubs so eagerly?" Zihna asked slyly. Dai shook his head and offered his arm to his wife. She accepted and they followed the crowd.
"More food?" Shanku asked excitedly.
"Algod help you, you glutton," Eru groaned and followed after her.
Eru and Shanku took a seat near Dai and Zihna as the cooks began to bring out various dishes.
"After dinner, you two must go to bed," Dai reminded them as they began to serve themselves.
"Yes, sir," Eru nodded.
Shanku was mostly oblivious as she tucked into all sorts of meats, breads, and baked things being served.
"Etiquette classes were wasted on you, Shanku," Eru teased.
"Was not, Eru!" Shanku snapped back, her mouth full of food.
Eru shook his head with resignation and tried to enjoy the meal.
Iris Birchfield and Master Woodstock were married in the spring. A few days later it was time for Dai and his family to return to the plains to let the Urych graze and fatten back up, and to find the Heyen clan once more. He gave his mother a long hug goodbye and lead them away.

Bedtime
The beginning of the newlyweds life together and the end of another visit in Wynfall. It's time to go back to the plains and find the Heyen Clan.
Also, here is the more correct representation of the height difference between Dai and Zihna. Ten inches is quite a bit, no? Had to draw them again. I like their outfits.
