Blackfeather Woods No number, no return address

It seemed they were on the same page about him leaving again, which was a relief. It was a hard boundary for her right now, and she didn't want to fight with him about it—she didn't want to fight with him at all. She wanted some time to just be happy with him, even if it looked different now. 

He seemed so worried about Zephyr dying, and the feeling of resentment clenched her gut again. Why did he care so much if Zephyr died? It wasn't like she wanted anything bad to happen to the young leader, but she wasn't going to go out of her way to protect him from his poor decisions. He wasn't a child. He is an adult and can make his own choices, Taikon. It is not your responsibility to save him from his mistakes. It was probably not the caring words he wanted from her, but he shouldn't be surprised; she had always been more pragmatic when it came to those who were not in her very small circle of trust. I think we should stay out of it and let him do what he wants. If he thinks it is a good idea to have you lead him with out me, he clearly does not have your best interest in mind. He needed to stop letting whatever hold Zephyr had on him blind him from logic.
