Fox's Glade As if your soul were on fire from within, the moon lives in the lining of your skin.

Tahani heard out the entire story, shaking her head as Uki apologized. the ghost of a smile even came to her face, and she dipped her muzzle to the woman in gratitude. "no need to be sorry," she responded gently. "you did the right thing. i'm thankful you were there to stop him."

she canted her head at the newcomer, intrigued. Siarut had recruited several to their family over the past moon, but this one was different, somehow. maybe it was because this was the first proper interaction she had had with a joiner, having been so wrapped up with Currituck and Shivali's pups. but in this moment, she was overjoyed to have Uki with them.

"you need care," she noted, eyes raking over the wounds littering her body. "lay down, relax. let me bring herbs to help you." with a wag of her tail, Tahani turned and took off at a slow trot, heading toward the cache she had hastily made upon her arrival. it was low, but she thought she had enough to bring to Uki without running out and having to gather more in a hurry.
