Redtail Rise Family Reunion

Nova drifted in and out of sleep, eventually propping herself up on one elbow to better survey her surroundings. Her pelt was warm with the light of her lord, and as a familiar scent drifted to her on the wind, she couldn't help but reminisce. It reminded her of a place that hadn't been so kind to her - but somewhere she'd once had children. Their little faces had been etched into her mind, but they'd all went their separate ways when they could. It wasn't that they didn't love each other, and Nova regretted not being around her children more, but she'd been a good mom. They all wanted different things, and that was okay.

It wasn't until the girl came into sight that Nova Rose truly recognized the scent - those honey eyes wouldn't ever be forgotten, and as they looked upon the golden furred elder, all she could do was stare, open mouthed. The white girl spoke, then, and broke Nova's shock - rising to her feet slowly, the elder took a step forward. Her spectral eyes could not leave the face of the wolf before her: undoubtedly, positively, without a hint of hesitation, Nova Rose's daughter. Not one like Grace - not adopted, but a child grown in her own womb and raised by the warm hearted Nova.
