Blackfeather Woods That's My Lullaby

Yes please! ; n ;

Raking Damien's face with one last lick, she laid her head across her son's shoulders. It was quiet for a moment, those Meldresi stirred as her youngest children's whimpers could be heard. She sighed, then rose, shaking her pelt and stretching her body. Either they were hungry or they had awoken and sensed that she was gone. Either way, they would be crying in a few moments.

She looked down at her son and smiled, saying nothing more as she turned her back and slipped back into the den to soothe her fussy children. Whether she was aware it was the last time she would see her eldest son no one could say but the Gods themselves. But if she did know, she would have been glad that they got to spend this moment with each other before she passed.
