Dragoncrest Cliffs Watched my welcome wear thin

You always will be, Rosalyn joked back affectionately. Erzulie might be growing in years as she did, but the pirate doubted she'd ever manage to see her wife as old. No matter how old she may feel herself.

Odd to think of it indeed. She could not imagine their current children taking such steps though in truth she might have been grandmother to Valravn and Regin had things gone differently. Instead she and Erzulie were mother once more. One day would Chacal raise children of her own? She hoped not, at least a part of her - she could imagine no man earning the right to her daughter's side. If she chose to, Rosalyn hoped she chose to do so of her own terms.

If anyone says otherwise, we can send them to argue with the sea. I may feel old but I don't think I'm ready to hear it from anyone else, Rosalyn added, humor picking up now that she'd turned from worse thoughts.
