Sunbeam Lair you reduce my name to a signal fire

Asterr seems far more convinced how he will turn out than he does himself. She doesn’t know what his family is like and what they do without even a second thought. It haunts him at times and when something happens, he’s forced to think in two ways. When Scarlet had been attacked by the cougar, his father’s voice was in his head telling him what to do but he had shun that away. In the end, the woman’s death had affected him more than he thought and perhaps his father had been right. Her suffering could have ended sooner instead of prolonging for weeks, wasting resources, but how could they not even try to heal her?

The thought stains his mind for a moment longer and he almost misses the request, in which he ultimately nods his head numbly before he turns a little and follows behind where she wants to go.
