When King Lawrence had returned to Ruscovic, the first thing he did was make sure that his children were alright. They had been crying on and off about Shasta since she had left them with Maevis and Nicolas. The only times that they seemed alright were when they slept, and when the reindeer would nuzzle them for comfort.
