Morningside Cuesta I've often wished I could walk away from myself

Heartha's eyes peeked open to, expecting to see the dark of the night. She had been struggling to sleep, after Tulip had disappeared. She had lost her children again, and she could only blame herself. She should have watched over them, but she had failed them.

So she was surprised to see the sun coming up. She had managed to sleep through the night. Her head lifted, and she let out a sigh of relief. It had not been a good sleep, but at least she had one. Her eyes remained on the sun, a sad look in her eye. She wished they could have seen this with her, her children. 

She soon looked away to the others around. The male her and Kieran had met at the river, Sylvas, and some others that had joined with them. Another family, another path to travel.
