"Embersoul has seen fifty ice seasons. I've seen over 2000. Every creature on this planet is a child to me. Embersoul has been an adult since his tenth ice season." Thundermouth answered as he waded in his pool. "Mantis eggs required a great deal of care to be birthed. There would be so much more of them if all he had to do was dig a hole then dump them in it." He paused to look at the alien studying him like Khell studied them. "My tongue and mouth are different than his. It's not that he can't speak in complete sentences; it's that he can't form the sounds. I'm sure you heard his clicks and chirps? Well they aren't just clicks and chirps. They're his words but you can't understand them."
He popped his head out of the pool and laid it on one of the smoothed rocks that lined the edge. "You're a strange creature like nothing from this planet. I can see why you were choosing to be the womb. And I know why we can communicate. Did you be any chance find yourself wrapped up in black tree roots at some point?"
