Firefly Glen Knowledge is power

The sound of movement drew Nyra's attention quickly. 
Seeing War on the other side of the stream, the Fallen Queen stiffened with caution. 
After all, the war machine had turned on her when it mattered. 
Then again, didn't Nyra do the same? 

Why? 

In that moment, Nyra's icened heart truly began to thaw as she saw the emotions in her old pack mate's eyes. 

"I fled because it was a lost battle...there were many of them, and only three of us. It felt smarter to scatter to the wind, in the hopes Xynos, you, and I would see another day." The Shieldmaiden started, regret and sorrow replacing the steel in her balefire eyes. 
"I didn't intend to betray you, War...and I am sorry, deeply, for not telling you both of my impromptu plan. I felt that there wasn't enough time to do something more, and our downfall happened so fast..." Nyra blinked back some tears, trying to keep her composure. 
She did love War. Still did, but she wasn't sure how they both could show it now in ways the other would understand.
