Barrow Fields You don't have to worry

It was a good sentiment, but it probably didn't quite echo with Maia like it did with Cadeau.  Ever since she was small, Maia had never grown up in any way doubting that she belonged among her family.  She might have felt less than them, but never so much so that she didn't have a place there.

She giggled too when Cadeau joked, and nodded.  When my mom would tell those, it's because she would ask my brothers and sisters and me to finish them.  We'd try to outdo each other on endings, so they always ended up super crazy.  Sibling rivalry at its best, especially when they got a little older.

She thought a minute.  How about the story of the dragon that lost its scales? She asked, liking this one because it was also a fable and would help introduce Cadeau to the nicer side of dragons.  The afternoon was getting rather long, and Maia knew if she was actually leaving she needed to head out soon.  But she'd promised a story, so would deliver!

she can tell and we can wrap or we can wrap now and start another, I'm game either way!
