Dragoncrest Cliffs I put my hands in the fire

Last post for me. But this family is amazeballs.

Chacal sniffed softly, and cast her disinterested gaze away from her mother. She didn't find it fair that her brother had become Rosada, and a few other non-familial males as well, but not her. In her opinion, Valravn was indeed deserving of the rank- but she found the premise of the swimming competition lacked reason. Why should swimming determine rank? 

All she knew was that she and Valravn both felt snubbed by the choices their mothers had made. So when Valravn made to leave she moved with him. She would pause, though, when her mother spoke something that could have been considered a warning- that theh would talk again. Chacal heaved a sigh, though this time, it was tinged with sadness. It was just another reminder that she couldn't speak, and that their communication would likely be effected because of it. How would she be able to discuss this again? 

Solemnly, she'd nod. But her heart ached, as she followed obediently after her brother.
