i was born, on the highway, in a train wreck
with a heart, that was beating, out of my chest
Upon hearing more soft footsteps approaching the scene, Aurum turned and immediately smiled when he saw Roy trotting over, glad to see his son out and about around the territory. Ever since the other had returned from the Pitt, Aurum had been anxious that the other wouldn't ever end up leaving their house again, too worried about having another breakdown like before and hurting people, but it seemed that thankfully he had been wrong. Tanglewood was not only Aurum's home, but it was also Roy's home now, and Aurum found himself moving over to gently touch his nose to his son's head, before other had even spoken up at all. The lion's tail flicked from side to side behind him as he settled back down, one of his wings draping itself over Roy's shoulders. Aurum honestly didn't mind Roy being dependent on him at the moment, considering how independent he had been as a younger lion had been as a result of being abused, and Aurum definitely hoped that Roy didn't feel as though he was being abused, ignored as Aurum had been when he had been younger. Still, he couldn't help but feel proud that Roy was showing signs of being independent, and exploring around the territory without him, even though that exploring had led the tiger straight back to him and his class.
When Roy asked how they would be able to renew all the markings, Aurum chuckled and said as he gestured towards the trees with a large golden and red wing, "Well, I already refreshed some of the markings as I was reviewing all of these. Mostly the important ones, like the traps and stuff like poison or irradiated water. If we want to renew all of them, then we could split into groups and go searching for things to mark before carving them into the nearby trees. And of course, if we come across any markers that have faded over time, we could look nearby and see if the tree marking is still relevant. If it is? We receive it! Pretty simple, but I can't really do it all on my own. My wings would eventually just get exhausted and I'd collapse." Truthfully he might've been able to do it on his own with just a few days, but he wanted to get it done fairly quickly, so that the markers would be relevant again fairly fast. That way, the guardsman wouldn't be forced to host this class over and over again... for a little while, at the very least. Unless they got a sudden huge influx of joiners who would need to be educated in the ways of the tree markers.
