Dragoncrest Cliffs This Is the Only Way to Be

Just to clarify, I also play Suzu XD and yep, she may be skipped in this thread.

 

With the children more or less settled, Chacal relaxed a little bit, turning her attention to her Maman. She saw her mother’s pride beam through the darkness, and searched her features for signs of woe or concern. Erzulie would know- she had had many children, though to the best of Chacal’s knowledge, most of them had been born healthy. 

She was reassured to hear about her sisters. It seemed common, then, for this sort of thing to happen. She tended as Erzulie leaned closer to listen and inspect the little girl more closely- and again, she was relieved to see that her mother stayed calm. 

”I want ‘er to live,” She said, tearfully. Her lip trembled and she pouted, eyes becoming watery as her mother explained what they would do if the little girl did not feed. She wept, overwhelmed by hormones and emotions, and did her best to wipe her tears away with one of her forelegs. She nodded numbly. 

”I will name her now, den. She needs to ‘ave a name,” She said. She did not fear for the boys- they were round and healthy. But she would not forgive herself if her little girl did not survive the night, and died without ever being given a name. ”Berceuse.” She said, nudging the little one agan, though the tiny one did little other than nuzzle into her fur, mouth still shut.
