There was both a chill and a saltiness between them, he could sense it like he sensed the ocean during his travels, and for a moment longer the two lovers were separate continents with a massive sea between them. Teya flowed away from him and when she spoke, it was not a dismissal that followed, but a request of the opposite.
A small voice bubbled up from inside the den and became an insistent wail; Reyes recognized the sound of distress immediately, but the shock of knowing he had another daughter froze him in place a moment.
It was immediately too dark to see. The transition from the searing daylight to the dimming of the Hobbit Hole with its dust motes and grassy lining took a second of adjustment; however, when Reyes saw the little ruddy body of the girl in her nest, everything else fell away.
He no longer felt the weariness of the long hike home, or the emotional distance from Teya, only awe, which he would recognize later as instant love.

What's her... what's her name?
