High overhead, Grenzhilkaxic surveilled the old temple. Even from the distance, he felt the powerful magical energies that imbued the many alabaster towers and walls of the structure. Such magicks were far more powerful than he could deal with himself. Thankfully, his lair was far from the temple. He would avoid this area in the future.
Having examined the area, he flew on.

Jayce raises a large hand and scratches the deers head gently. Even as he does so his eyes remain on Aechon. The boys wonder and curiosity was palpable. Hopefully the boy would find some joy in this encounter with the small animals. Stretching an arm over his head Jayce did something unexpected; The armored paladin fell backward from his siting position with a whoof. He sprawled out, stretching out comfortably. He hadn't lain down in a few days it was pleasant to do so now.

The child was still a little uncertain of this creature as it got so close. He remained very still, almost holding his breath, and then... it butted him. He leaned back, startled, wings coming open just a little bit as the boy regained his balance - his motion more out of a reaction than actually being pushed. He looked to his two guardians with uncertainty before reaching out with a small, wavering hand to try and pet the baby deer tentatively atop his head.
The animal was really soft, even for a short haired pelt. It made Aechon smile nervously, but he was easing into this. This little fawn... was okay with being so close. It wasn't running away... it was friendly. After a few moments he managed a very quiet "... h-hi there".

Naenia looked over at Jayce as the paladin sprawled out on his back, and laughed softly. He looked comfortable and content. She felt the sudden urge to reach over and run her fingers through his pale hair, and only stopped herself after she realized her hand was moving to act upon her thoughts unbidden. Retracting it with a jerk, she settled instead for petting and scratching the fawn in front of her, watching as the little animal stretched out and enjoyed having its neck and chin skritched so pleasantly.
The fawn that had gone to investigate Aechon started slightly as the boy leaned back and opened his wings, but didn't flee, remaining nearby and sniffing at him curiously. Then the boy began to pet him, and the fawn clearly enjoyed the feeling, leaning into his touch and stretching out its little body. When he spoke, it looked at him with curious brown eyes, tilting its head. Then it took another step closer, and gently nudged his shoulder with its head, before leaping back slightly, and ducking its front end down in a universal animal gesture, one that said, 'Let's play!'

Jayce turns his head to watch Aechon as the boy pets the deer. A gentle and joyous smile splits the old paladins face. The smile though wavers slightly when he notices Naenia's hand. Had she been about to touch him? If so why? And why had she stopped herself? It was a curious thing, but not worth worrying about. Jayce's eyes flick to Aechon, but Jayce finds it's hard to keep them open. He was comfortable it was a lovely day and the valley was beautiful. This had been the first time he had truly relaxed in a while and he was paying for it. Soon his eyes droop close and his breathing evens out. His normally stern face relaxes and a look of serene peace and calm, that make him look even younger than normal, settles in.

Aechon was nudged again, but he wasn't so skittish this time. He watched the deer drop down in that playful stance, and then looked to Naenia and Jayce for an answer. He glances back to the little fawn, and carefully gets to his feet. He really didn't stand much taller than the fawn, did he...
He takes a couple of tentative steps forward, not quite sure what to do. But at least now his expression was curiosity and a touch of concern rather than the deep depression instilled by his loss.

Naenia smiled, nodding her encouragement. "Go on. Have some fun." The fawn that Naenia had been petting moved to lay down beside her, resting its head in her lap as she continued to shower it with attention and affection; the one that Jayce had been scratching flopped down near his head with a sigh and took a nap.
The fawn that was trying to get Aechon to play bounded back a bit, then bounced in toward him and nudged his shoulder, before leaping away again and resuming its 'Let's play!' stance. It seemed it wanted to play tag, and the other fawns were now watching curiously as well, waiting to see if they had a new playmate. Well, aside from the two that were being lazy with Naenia and Jayce, anyway. They were content to lounge and get attention.. or nap.

Aechon couldn't help an uncertain chuckle as the baby deer bounced around and nudged him a third time. He was less worried of scaring the fawn now, since it seemed to eager to want to play with him. He lunges forward a few awkward steps with hands lifted and goes "Rawr!" with a false attempt to grab the fawn, expecting him to bolt away. He was still unsure - he'd never played with the wildlife before. But he hoped to have some response that wasn't a terrible one resulting in him being alone.

The fawn bleated and bounced away a bit, then bounded around behind Aechon and nudged him in the back with its head, then leaped and frolicked off toward the other fawns. They bleated excitedly and scattered, bouncing in all directions as they played tag with their new friend. Naenia watched this, laughing softly, and grinned at the sight. It was quite entertaining. The fawns would play with Aechon for a couple of hours before Naenia called him over, and reached over to gently shake Jayce awake. It was afternoon now, and they should all eat.
"Let us eat lunch. I wonder what Jayce packed?" She was already digging into the basket curiously while the fawns went to graze and drink and nap in the sunlight. Their mothers and the stag were also lazing in the sun.

The paladin continues to snore gently even as Naenia shakes him. He had been awake for three days straight he was slumbering deeply. Inside are a few neatly prepared roast beef sandwiches,apples, and some salted nuts. A simple tasty meal for all of them.

Aechon enjoyed the play, chasing after the fawns with arms outstretch to try and catch them. They were very nimble and fast for children! But so was he! He reveled in the feeling of having other to play with, even if they were two completely different creatures. But they felt as close to friends as any other child. They helped him look past his depression and his loss, if only for the time being.
When he was called to eat he pouted at having his fun interrupted, but brought himself over to plop down on the blanket as he panted and rested - peering over the edge of the basket to the food inside. His stomach rumbled quite loudly as he looked at the sandwiches, and he looked up to Miss Naenia for permission to take one - hand partially outstretched as if to grab one.

Naenia's expression softened when Jayce failed to awaken. Poor man. He must be so tired. Turning away from him, she looked at Aechon and gave the boy a smile as he looked at her for permission to partake of the picnic lunch, and nodded, speaking softly so as not to awaken Jayce.
"Go ahead, eat up. You can play with the fawns a bit more after lunch, and then we need to head back to the temple." Taking a sandwich and an apple for herself, she began to nibble at the food, looking content. It had been good to see Aechon playing.

Upon gaining permission, Aechon took up one of the sandwiches and bit into it with a bit of hunger gnawing at his stomach - a much better improvement from the night prior. The distraction from the harsh reality over the past couple of days had done wonders for the boy's health as a whole.
He continued biting into the sandwich, eventually bringing his eyes over to where the fawns were lazing about. He glanced to the basket, and then the fawns, and the basket again. Without even thinking about asking, he finally dipped his hand into the basket to pick up an apple and darted over to where the fawns were at - stopping several feet short to avoid scaring them.
If they didn't bolt, he would tip toe closer and sit nearby with the last half of his sandwich in his lap. He would hold the round, red fruit out for them to sniff at. If they held interest, he would take the time to use his teeth and bite past the skin - only biting far enough that he could then start to tear out chunks that he would try to share with the fawns - all the while watching with the wide, awe-struck stare of a child fascinated with the world around him.

Naenia ate contentedly, watching as Aechon ate. When he kept glancing between the basket and the fawns, she arched an eyebrow curiously, wondering what he was thinking. She wasn't expecting him to pluck up an apple and hurry over to where the fawns were laying about, sunning, grazing, or drinking. They looked at him with interest when he settled near them, and several sniffed at the apple, greatly intrigued. Once he bit through the skin and began offering them chunks of the juicy fruit, they eagerly snatched them up and ate them, making happy sounds. Naenia smiled. Oh, she wished Jayce was awake to see it. She should've known the innocent nature of the fawns would be enough to bring the boy out of his shell. He'd played with them, he was eating with hunger, now he was sharing fruit with the creatures. It was.. such a wonderful change. She casually removed all of the apples but one from the basket, rolling them across the ground to where Aechon sat, so that he could share them with the fawns, then returned to her own lunch, finishing her sandwich and moving on to the apple in her lap.

Seeing more of the apples rolling over the grass towards him brought a look of excitement across his face as he picked them up, gathering them in his lap to keep them from rolling about elsewhere. He worked as quickly as he could to continue biting and tearing more chunks out to toss out for the fawns - and even tossing a few for the does and their guardian buck to take. He was enjoying this, somehow, making them happy and feeding them. It made the boy smile - a soft, delicate gesture across his face that made him almost seem to glow. Even his feathers seemed more stark and white like freshly fallen snow, and the flora nearby were growing a touch more vibrantly. He was genuinely happy.

The fawns, and even the does, were quite pleased with the apples. The buck sniffed curiously, but then snapped it up and ate it. But for the most part, he was watching, guarding his herd. The fawns were nudging and nuzzling Aechon as they ate the apple. He was clearly their new favorite thing in the world. He gave them tasty food! Naenia chuckled, shaking her head at the antics of boy and creatures.

The amused giggles of the boy could be heard as he became gently smothered by the presence of the fawns wanting more apple pieces, to the point where he ended up rolling over onto his back as he was headbutted again and again when they pressed closer. But there was no fear here - just utter joy. He ended up not being able to finish chunking apart the fruit in hand as he was overwhelmed by adorable, childish affections by the animals. He had to toss it away and let them determine to go after it just to let him have some room to move again. They were such greedy little things!

Several of the fawns bounded away from him to playfully fight over the apple, but the one who had originally gone to urge him into play - identified by an odd, large blotch of white fur on its face - remained near him. It flopped down beside the boy and laid its head in his lap, silently offering a simplistic animal's affection.. and an unspoken request for pettings. Deciding that Aechon was safe enough for the time being, Naenia shifted slightly closer to Jayce and stretched out beside the slumbering paladin, closing her eyes for a bit of rest.
And so the rest of the afternoon would pass, with the angel napping lightly beside the deeply slumbering paladin as the boy played with the deer. But as the sun began to sink toward the horizon and the shades of day shifted toward evening, the buck would gather his herd up and urge them into the trees. The sound of this exodus alerted Naenia, who came awake quickly, and sat up to see what was happening. Her first instinct was to make sure Aechon was alright, and whether he had fallen asleep - it wouldn't have surprised her if he had ended up taking a nap with the rambunctious fawns. Either way, she reached over and put her hand on Jayce's shoulder, giving him a firm shake as she spoke.
"Jayce, the sun is setting. We should return to the temple, now."

Jayce stirs awake slowly. His eyes open and fall on Naenia and he smiles. Then he pushes himself up to see Aechon and the fawn, this deepens the smile. Apparently there had been some progress while he slept. He was sorry to not have seen it, but he had needed the rest. Pushing himself to his feet he gets to work packing up the picnic.

Aechon found solace with the odd fawn out, watching him with a very soft smile. Seeing him place his head in the child's lap made the boy giggle, before extending a hand to gently pet him along his face and neck. He was so soft... and so gentle. Aechon reveled in the peace that settled over them.
It wouldn't be long before he turned himself to lie down with his face buried into the back of the animal, careful to keep his legs together to provide the pillow for the white-blotched fawn. The pair would fall asleep just like that, cuddled up close to each other.
When the buck called for their leave, Aechon started awake to watch his new friend bound off into the glade, and he felt his heart sink a little. It was evident in his expression. All he could do was wave good-bye as the creature disappeared into the trees with a flick of his white tail in the air. He didn't move just yet, staring off where they herd disappeared to as if expecting them to come back. What was going on his the boy's head?
