Natasha looked at Hatsu. Listening to what was being said. "Ah. Sounds a lot like Nania. She was a young widow whose child my brother gave to our grandmama to raise. She passed away after the baby was born." She explains. She listened as she continued. Nodding her head. "Yes. I can understand that." She says with a smile. "I love children and I help the nanny of the merchant caravan with the kids any chance I get. They call me momma Natasha. Even the ones that have mothers. It makes me feel special and needed." She admitted. She shifted Karbukef a bit and stopped at a stall of candy for children. She pulls a sucker out of a package. Giving it to him. "Here little one. Have a sweet treat for a sweet little boy." She says in an almost loving tone.<br/><br/>Henry looked at Aahhotep. "Yes my sister is beautiful. Yes she would. I am however, picky in who I will allow to marry her. I wish only the best for my sister. I want her to have a chance to love her husband but also to be treated with love and respect. I will not let her marry any man with a violent tongue and even violenter temper." He said seriously. "She is all I have left of our mother. Mother was of extraordinary beauty as well. You seem like a good man though. Quite calm natured. Respectful from what I have seen." He thought for a moment. "She is very good with the children of our caravan. They all seem to take to her. Even the teenagers call her momma natasha." He said with a smile.<br/><br/>He turned his attention to Achencheres. "Yes. Women are strong to be able to bear the children yet not all of them are extremely strong." He admitted. "You should watch a child birth sometime. It will give a whole new respect level to the woman." He said with a nod of his head. Listening to the rest of what he was saying. Nodding his head. "I will see what I can do Pharoh Achencheres." He led the way to the goats and sheep. He opened the gate for them. Walking over to a sheep. Picking it up. Laughing as it just looked at him dumbfounded. He sets it down. Petting it. "This is a sheep Pharoh Achencheres." He said. Looking at him. "I only have ten that I can spare as we still need a few for the travels." He stood back up. He looked at a young woman and man. Calling them over. "Achencheres this is Margaret and Joseph. Joseph. Maragaret. Would you be willing to stay and help our new friends and my new in laws with learning to take care of  the sheep and horses."<br/><br/>Margaret and Joseph nodded their heads. Margaret speaking. "Yes Lord Henry. We would be willing. We shall join up with you again when you come back through." She bowed to the two royals. "Excuse us. We are helping a female sheep give birth." She pulls her husband along and Henry looked at him. "There you go. Two of my people to help you learn the ways of caring for sheep and horses." A dog started herding the sheep away from the goats. He looked back to Aahhotep. "You seem like a gentle natured man who is yet strong but caring of his people and family. Are you asking things about Natasha out of genuine interest? I would be willing to speak with Natasha about staying here to get to know you. In our culture the women have more say than I have seen in other cultures. If she wishes to get to know you than I see no reason why a marriage arrangement can not be formed."<br/><br/>Pet-Ament looked at Sanura. Nodding his head in agreement. He chuckled a bit. "Yes but you'll have to make sure to tell Aradia they aren't for eating." He said softly. He looked at the koi. "Yes they are rather pretty and small." He says with a chuckle. Pointing to a sign. "It says they might be willing to part with the tent for five coins more." He said. Reading it to her in case she couldn't understand the foreign language. He looked at a nearby stall. "They have books over there. Perhaps you can find a few that you can read and wish to purchase." He said softly. He picked up a couple books in front of the animals. "Here you go Sanura. A book on koi and a book on birds." He said. Handing them to her. He looked at the nearby creatures. Picking up a cage with a cute looking lemur baby. "I wonder if I can get this. Maybe Achencheres will buy her for me." He pets the cute lemur through the cage.<br/><br/><a class="postlink" href="http://www.durrell.org/library/Image/baby-lemur-small.JPG">[ img ]</a>
