Her father's words of comfort had her whimper softly, emotions a mess, a pressure in her chest clenching her heart. She leaned against him, inhaling the familiar scent of his fur, small beside her protecter and father as memories came to light, faded and confusing and yet that spoke distinctly f the grey woman, distinctly of Althaia.
