Blackfeather Woods i've got wild, staring eyes

Not once did it cross the Lanta's mind that this is what the call would have summoned. She had grown better at the long words others spoke and Maegi's message was clear to her. Her heart thumped within her chest as she processed what Blackfeather's leader had just shared. A series of emotions flooded through every inch of her.

Fear of failure, that she could not live up to the request well enough and that something might happen to the place she called home.

Love for Maegi trusting her so dearly with such a role of responsibility. A warmness spread in her chest and surely this is where it stemmed from.

Finally there was acceptance and perhaps responsibility for she knew this was what she must do. Her goal had always been to better the place she had grown to call home and making sure it remained flourishing.

Jakoul seemed to become animated by the final realization of things as her head gave a firm nod. Yes. She breathed the response with certainty in her tone. Guard home. Always.
