Silvertip Mountain And You Let Her Go

As her Uncle started to speak again, Odie paused in her steps and listened.  She wished that she could be a hero like Solemn had once been, but she wasn't, she was just... timid... or at least it seemed that way to Odette.  Suddenly she didn''t want to walk away now, realizing that she might not get anotehr chance to actually sneak out and get away with it.  Odette sat back down slowly.  "Tay a bit longer."  She whispered quietly, staring at the ground.

Then Odette began to think and think and think.  She thought about Solemn and how much she missed him and she thought of the Father that she had never really gotten to know.  She was silent for minutes, before she finally spoke again.  "Wah was ma daddeh like?"  Odie asked in a quiet murmur, then glanced up at her Uncle waiting for an answer that she was unsure whether she wanted or not.
