[video] Searching for parents

[emet_sulk]

[ Emet-Selch looks a little harried and stressed today when the video feed begins. There is a little axolotl clinging to a front lock of his hair, gently chewing. He either doesn't notice or doesn't care as there is urgency to his gaze and tone. ]

Should anyone encounter a pair of ambystomae - I mean, axolotls - with a carnivorous tendency, please abstain from killing them immediately and inform me of their location. I need to return their child to them.

[ This won't stop anyone killing the many axolotls involved in the search but he has to hope he finds the parents before they're accidentally killed. ]

Hmm. I will keep on the lookout for these missing children.

Do you have any further details?

[emet_sulk]

[ He points to the axolotl hanging off his hair. ]

This is the missing child. I should hope there weren't more which stowed away on our ship that have since absconded.

[ Although sending an army of warriors does seem a little excessive for one child... ]

[ He's placing a hand over his mouth so that Emet-Selch cannot see his smile nor his laughter. ]

Mayhap your new friend is someone of import.

[emet_sulk]

I sincerely hope not.

[ Please, he doesn't want to be accused of stealing the princely-equivalent of a man-eating fish thing. ]

The adults are aggressive and will likely try to attack and eat you if you see them.

[afflatusexarch]

Why else would they bring so many individuals to find one child?

[emet_sulk]

[ Emet-Selch pinches the bridge of his nose and sighs quietly. ]

I choose to believe they care very, very much about their children.
