She silently fretted the entire walk home and was relieved to finally arrive there, only to have that relief completely smashed by panic when she looked upon the destruction of their home. They were completely blocked from entering the territory, and she had no idea who else was out here. Right now it was just the two of them, but that didn't mean there weren't others. She was frozen in shock, unsure what to do next or even how they would be able to survive the winter being stuck out here. The wall was solid rock and she had no idea how anyone was going to get through it. And what about their packmates on the inside? how were they going to eat? Millions of thoughts swirled in her mind until Rye's voice brought her back to the present. She met his worried gaze with one of her own, guilt burning in her chest when she realized just how difficult feeding themselves was going to be with her so useless at hunting. She was the main reason food would be a major problem because she couldn't pick up the slack while he was healing.
She couldn't let herself spiral into an endless cycle of self hatred, not now. When he spoke again, she touched her nose gently to his shoulder, offering him comfort because that was all she could do right now. Effie nodded, her cheek brushing against his fur.

Okay,she answered and then she waited for him to move, careful to stay close again so that he could lean on her if he needed to. Once they found somewhere to sleep, she would go and get more willow bark for his pain.
All the variety,
all the charm,
all the beauty of life
is made up of light and shadow
