Broken Antler Fen We'll give the world the world to you, and you'll blow us all away

Pearl watched proudly as her family was all together in one place, full up on happiness and love. She gazed at all her children, including Odette, and gave a soft smile before resting her head tiredly on her paws. "Not hungry, but thank you," she spoke, barely audible, but enough to be heard.

With a last glance over her newborns, she nuzzled the one closest to her head and easily slipped into the realm of sleep. It was a peaceful sleep after an exhausting labor, one that was dreamless and plesant. She would awake periodically after that, but after the toll four pups, some larger than others, she wasn't going to be awake much in the next few days.
