Blackfeather Woods I’ll be right here to hold you when the sky falls down

Ena says there are lots of gods here. Sobek announced from where he had been lurking, having been watching the dark shape and trying to stalk after it as a kind of game. He wasn't nearly as stealthy as Anansi, but Sobek had been fortunate enough to encounter Moonshadow while she was distracted and emotional. He didn't know the significance of this place for her - and even as he slunk towards her, the child was oblivious to her struggle.

He didn't really understand what a god was either, but when Maegi was sad she would sometimes talk about them. He was trying to help in the best way he knew how. When he was beside her, he plopped down and said, Can I help? His little tail waved like a red sickle, batting at the forest floor.
