Hushed Willows ohana

Lily had changed a lot since her arrival in these lands. This kind of a journey, like the initial one to Broken Boulder, would have worn her out, before. But she was stronger, now, and more worldly. By the time she arrived to the willows, she could have done it all over again and still have energy left over to smile. She did so now, turning to Seabreeze and then to the group as a whole.

She'd noticed Alarian's departure, but did not pay it much mind. This is what he did--taking off without notice. He would be back, right? He always came back. More worrisome was Korei's absence, but Lily assumed she was with the Governor; where else would she be? If she didn't return in a couple of days' time, Lily would go out looking for her.

Seabreeze tossed the metaphorical mic to her, and she grinned, wagging her tail. "I didn't see any den sites when I was last here," she remarked, "but I probably wasn't looking hard enough. Who wants to go searching with me?" Her eyes sought out Khali in particular, but she kept the children in close mind, too.
