The Sentinels where dips the rocky highland of sleuth wood in the lake

@Blue Willow

Her tiny paws splayed against the Source's side as she drank deep of the sustenance it provided. She did not know that this was Mother— only that at times, the Source would provide food, and other times it would not. When it did, she drank her fill and then some, for fear of the pain in her belly that made her want more. Deirdre slept soundly beside her, and she kept a tiny inky hind-paw pressed firmly against her; to know that she was there, and still hers.\

She continued to drink, and drink, until a curious feeling came over her. Suddenly, this sustenance seemed, bad, bad and Emaleth abruptly pulled away to mewl in distress. Before a sound could emerge, something else did instead; a small stream of sour milk erupted forth, and Emaleth then did cry out in panic, struggling once more to find a teat. She did not realize she had eaten too much, only that some was now gone and that she wanted it back.
