Arrow Lake men crawled through deserts

blodreina feels fairly well rested, despite that she sleeps on and off. when she does sleep it is heavy and unperturbed even if @Praimfaya is awake and nurses. she'd be more concerned about it — sleeping light comes naturally to her as a warrior alone — but she doesn't fret too much. she had just given birth over twenty four hours ago, after all; and though she suspects it might take her a while to get herself back into pre-baby shape once more ( especially while praimfaya isn't weaned ) she doesn't feel the same level of exhaustion she felt while heavily pregnant and it's immediately rejuvenating to her spirit; and one pup, well she figures ingram and her can keep up with praimfaya easily enough even when she is mobile and innately curious about everything ( tori snickers @ blodreina b/c yeah, you think that n o w ).

for now, blodreina tries not to think of how quickly the little wanheda will grow and tries to just enjoy what is unbeknownst to her the easiest stage of motherhood. she tries to stretch discreetly — acutely aware of praimfaya nestled against her fur — and relaxes as she shifts slightly so the newborn is in her view. it's hard to tell whether the girl is awake or asleep but blodreina roughly assumes that not nursing is asleep and nursing is awake. here we are little one. blodreina murmurs in her native tongue to the newborn, aware as she was that the girl couldn't hear her. welcome to the world.

deaf or not, it still felt appropriate for blodreina to properly welcome her into the world, as to which she'd been far too exhausted and far too emotional to do so directly following praimfaya's birth.
