Description:
Pups who are adopted often get the most out of life than living in their own pod, but as always the trade off comes with a price. Though for the orphan it is well worth it for the social bond they need to survive.This young siron male will have a long life ahead of himself protecting the mermares and take pride in doing so, but his existence will be nothing short of a candle in the face of a planets core in burning duration.
