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.
For a character who has only appeared in two completed stories this
Kuna certainly has left an impression on you! Glad to know that you
enjoyed this section!

If only he could have run on all fours. Meerkats can run at over 20
miles per hour.
I figure that he's still got some sense of his humanity in there and
how improper it is to run on all fours!

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.
I didn't know about the long canines. I will have to amend the
description some. Thanks for noting that!

If only you knew Hugo, if only you really knew.
*chuckles* And since this character has since left Metamor he can't
tell anybody about it!

Great story as usual, and now I'm looking forward to Hallan's
stories even more. I hope his writing is going well.
Thank you, Alex! I'm so glad that you enjoyed it! I hope that
Hallan's stuff is going well too; I'm eager to read his next tale as well!
May He bless you and keep you in His grace and love,
Charles Matthias
