Rising Sun Valley the power of voodoo (discovery)

Jinx's answer seemed to hint that she would one day found her own pack on a mountainside. Pied almost asked about it, then decided she'd rather not get into it. She'd lived in a forest, on a ridge, next to a creek and perhaps moving up in the world (literally) was just the next natural step for her. The Gamma mused about this with a dark sort of smile twitching the corners of her lips.

Anyway, where Jinx went and what she did no longer affected Pied in any way, nor was it her business. "I see. Well..." Well what? She wasn't even sure what she planned to say next, so she paused and then ended up not saying anything at all.

Her eyes were drawn again to the roundness of Jinx's belly and she sighed softly. "I really hope you give my offer real consideration, Jinx. I don't even care that they're blighted with your genes." This was said with another dark twitch of the lips before her face slackened again. "I would look after them..."

The Gamma decided it was time to go. "I think I'm going to leave you to it and get back to the ridge. Take care of yourself." Pied delivered this sentiment with a bit of a pointed look because, by saying take care of yourself, she really meant take care of them. She squinted at the Kesuk's abdomen one last time then before turning and slowly meandering back toward Horizon Ridge.
