She studied him for a few silent moments, saddened that he seemed so terrified of what she was saying. He backed away from her and she frowned, eyes misting over as it began to dawn on her that what she had done to him, the loss of her temper, it may have caused unfixable damage. She slid down to her belly, lowering her head as she cast her eyes to the ground her breath rushing from her lungs in a slow, shaky exhale. "I promise you aren't in trouble. I should have watched over him, I should have been the one to tell you who he was. I should have made him tell you" she spoke softly her teeth grinding together in aggravation as she truly thought his mother should have told him. "Don't run from me...please Orochi. Your hatred, its understandable but I can tell you why you aren't to blame, if you want to hear it. I can explain why I am the way I am. Why Issun...why he was so vile toward you" she turned her eyes away from the boy and licked her maw nervously, unsure whether this was her place. Was it her job now to be the one to tell him of his father and his betrayal? Why Minori was left to run everything and feed everyone? Why couldn't Takara have stayed and been the mother her son needed and wanted?
