*If you mean getting out from under her in the most playful way possible, then done and done.*
*Pitchy and I move deeper into the cave, I can make out the very back leading into a dark crevice in the wall.*
"Papa, Jay's here, he wanted to talk to you."
"Thank you Pitchy, you can go back now."
"Papa, are you gonna be okay?"
"I'll be fine Pitchy, you don't need to worry about me."
*Pitchy leaves*
"You're not alright Gus. You are falling apart at the seams."
"I know Jay. Why did you come here?"
"I've come to tell you that your brothers are escalating a war. And the light is responding in turn. We will soon see blood shed within a matter of weeks if not days. I need your help Gus."
"What can I do Jay? I'm breaking down, the Darkness may live forever but my essence is not eternal."
"If we can restore balance your essence will return to normal and you will be yourself again."
"You know that is not true Jay. Don't lie to me for your needs."
"They are not my needs Gus, they are the needs of the world."
"It doesn't matter, I can't help you, not like this. I've lost control over my children, the grues are turning feral, and the walkers are turning into rouges and assassins. Soon it will all be done and I can rest in peace."
"And what about the eggs Gus? You cannot simply leave them in a world that will kill them before they even have a chance at adult hood.
What about Pitchy?"
"..."
"Please Gus, for the safety of all the races."
"You are a cruel man asking me do this Jay, but damnit, you strike a hard bargain. But before I can go, I need someone to protect the eggs and the younglings."
"Can't Pitchy-"
"No. Pitchy is too young and too fragile for something like this. I need someone who has experience with taking care of the young."
"The Den mother?"
"I think that would be the best option."
"She will not be easily influenced to take a side in this."
"I won't be asking her to take a side, all I will be asking is her to watch over my children."
"Then we will ask her together."
