Morningside Cuesta Can't Run From This

Heartha glared at Howl with some sadness and anger, though the anger didn't stay for long. He had mearly through up a suggestion, one that would better explain the situation then her actually having been there. But he could understand that she really wanted her daughter to be there. 

When Heartha came to lean on Howl he allowed it and softly nuzzled his head against her. "I know." he told her in response to Heartha saying she missed her daughter. Heartha had in the past mentioned her children numerious times and with that Howl knew how much she cared for them, even in their absence. He wold have suggested that he look for her but he didn't want to get her hopes up, especially if he did find out what happened to her and it wasn't good news.
