Moonspear no rest for the parents

The laughter fell away naturally, as the tension slowly eased from her muscles. He grinned at her, and she laughed again at his question, shaking her head. "Well...not like this. Not dangling off the side of a mountain." She'd felt that she had brushes with death a handful of times...but none had seemed so...visceral as this one. There had been a hawk when she was a puppy, but she had been too young to understand. There was the lake she'd nearly run across that was not-so-frozen, but that didn't really count since she'd been stopped before running over it. Those were nothing compared to this, for one reason or another.

She considered his question for a moment, eyes straying to the edge and the open air beyond it. After a moment, she slowly shook her head. "No, I'm good. I'll just let you beat me and go slowly." She smiled at him, then chuckled a little. "And all the way over here, away from the edge." She slowly rose to her feet, taking her time to make sure they weren't shaking anymore. They felt a little awkward, a little stiff, probably from all the remaining adrenaline. But after only a moment she was fine, she nodded to Charon. "I'm ready, take it easy on me, though. I want to see the stars, not meet them in person."
