Ankyra Sound mother, mother: how's the family?

surya was confused as she explained her travel, though some of the puzzlement left his face as she added she was born here. he supposed there might be some comfort in having one's own children where they themselves were whelped. but did she have a way home? did she have help?

the scent of the healers was relatively fresh, which was good; that meant they were routinely checking on raleska and her children. at least there was that.

he shrugged nonchalantly. a day or two's travel from here, he remarked, but the yearling was much more concerned with her welfare. you live far? do you have family that can bring you home? unless. . .unless she didn't want to go home. he definitely understood that desire.

she really didn't have any other choice, though. the healers wouldn't be around forever, nor could he stay.
