Stavanger Bay Den-mother Doe

The child's brow furrowed ever so slightly, somehow surprised that she wasn't Sharkbait's mother after all. Who was her mommy then? She knew there was always a mother and father. Perhaps when she was feeling better, she would ask Skellige. In the meantime, Sharkbait accepted Amayo's introduction and explanation of her role as den mother in weary silence.

She twitched when Amayo laid down beside her but didn't make a move otherwise. Her nose wriggled at the honeycomb but she didn't partake, her stomach still turning somewhat from the remedies she had just swallowed. She hoped she wasn't being rude when she shook her head. It stilled again when Amayo informed her that Sharkbait was a princess by merit of Skellige's kingly station.

Despite her physical, mention and emotional fatigue, Sharkbait managed a quiet, "Okay." Something about the princess title caused a little warmth to flicker in her heart, though she could not have said why.
