The Sunspire and i'll die for her

for my son @Okeanos <3 

as the last few days had dragged by, terance had grown weary. every day he sat outside rannoch's den, guarding, terance was reminded how he'd failed his own daughter. his lover. his family. his pack. when's the last time he'd done something right? he couldn't remember. or maybe he didn't want to remember-- nowadays, it seemed like the only thing terance ever did was wallow in self-pity. 

he was really gonna have to get over himself, and he knew this, he scolded himself daily for being such a big sad lump. but still, he couldn't stop.

tonight, sitting vigil outside-- he knew he wouldn't fall asleep, and he didn't want to disturb seabreeze or liffey or olive or any of the pups-- he stared up at the sky, trying to get lost in the beauty and forget all that ailed him.
