Blackfeather Woods into the living sea of waking dreams,

aw but @Maegi especially <3

the girl that still lurked within relmyna, though she knew not the child's name, was a bony thing with frightened eyes. this the evoker had learned during her scrying, and she had learned also that within the trance, seeking the word of the dark ones, she did not suffer the plague of headaches normally experienced when she attempted to access her memories.
yet, for this boon had she been granted another malady; a horrible tossing to the earth, wherein she writhed and trembled beyond her own control, teeth clenched and lips flecked with foam. relmyna knew it had happened only once, but she feared that the specter would return for her.
blackfeather woods had not recovered after its attack; their members had dwindled, and the one wolf she knew to be true had gone away, bleeding, accompanied by his two sons. relmyna did not mourn his departure, but withdrawn further than before, even from Maegi, whom she had grown to adore.
on this morning, however, the evoker stared down at herself in the frozen surface of a puddle, and knew she had changed. and within her, the girl stirred and whispered she was to be a mother again. again?
and in looking, she noticed her body had become more pronounced, softer, a delicacy where before there had been only angles.
