"This is your Uncle Tuck, Hazel," Clio said, her voice warm and affectionate.
"Uncle Tuck!" Tuck took Hazel into his arms with practised ease, and he held her, immediately rocking from side to side. "Oh, she's perfect," he repeated. "Hi, Hazel! Hi!"
"She has to meet Evie!" Ella suggested, wise for her age. "When Hazel is older they can play together and I can teach them things!"
"You'll convey the wisdom of worlds, I know you will," Tuck said, his voice fond.
