Moonspear under her dark wings

@Lyra and @Alya

 

She ached for the loss of her mother and her father. Their absence created a void within her that she felt that she was impossible to repair—

The sight of Alya there saw that feeling dashed against the stone, as certainly as her mother and father had been. To be sure, there was a newfound emptiness that would remain that their absence had created... but Alya had returned! And the look she had seen reminded her—she had not lost it all; she could be whole again. After addressing the whole of her family, Moonspear itself, and when one by one they moved to depart the horrific scene, Hydra and Lyra both moved to spirit their twin away. Hydra was not intentionally dismissive toward @Nikai (in fact, she introduced him to @Dirge though unfortunately, her introduction was more than a little numb given the series of events) and she was quick to forget him in favor of Alya's return...

Quick to forget everyone, truly, but for Lyra and Alya. 

Her tongue was heavy, too heavy, for words presently—but she knew Alya would know every thought that flashed within her weary mind, as Lyra did. No amount of time apart could ever change this.
