Morningside Cuesta Shame

Heartha was at least glad she made a response, even if it wasn't a happy one. She shied her face away from Sunspot before she gave her answer. "My emotions...they got the better of me." Her mind was slowly getting broken. She was growing old, and she knew that the time that she would never be able to conceive again would be soon. And she trusted Spot enough to tell her that. "I'm growing old...I couldn't wait, I was afraid if I waited....I was afraid if I waited, then it would be too late." That was her true fear, the one thing that drived her to what she did.
