<div dir="ltr"><div>Awww! Poor Kuna. Despite being a fellow meerkat (or possibly because of it), I hadn't really liked him. But now with Jessica abusing him like that (and possibly because he's a child as well), I feel really bad for him. Because of that, this was probably my favorite part. </div>
<div><br></div><div>>The creature saw him running after him </div><div>>and tried to dart down the nearby alleys, but </div><div>>Hugo's legs were much longer and after two turns </div><div>>he'd snagged the lithe fellow by the arm.</div>
<div><br></div><div>If only he could have run on all fours. Meerkats can run at over 20 miles per hour. </div><div><br></div><div>>The boy complained, tugging on his arm, and then </div><div>>opening wide his jaws to reveal lots of little </div>
<div>>teeth. He tried to bite down on Hugo's hand, but </div><div>>the mage bopped him on the forehead with his </div><div>>other hand.</div><div><br></div><div>With its four relativity long canines, a normal sized meerkat can bite nearly all the way through a human hand (not through the bone of course). I'd be quite afraid to find out what one almost three times as large could do. </div>
<div><br></div><div>>He wasn't sure how he knew it, but he was </div><div>>absolutely certain that something deeper than the </div><div>>schooling of an urchin child had just taken </div><div>>place. </div>
<div><br></div><div>If only you knew Hugo, if only you really knew. </div><div>__________________________________________________</div><div><br></div><div>Great story as usual, and now I'm looking forward to Hallan's stories even more. I hope his writing is going well. </div>
