Sanja would wait there for the child to sleep again.
She wanted to leave it to the wilderness, for the law of the wilderness would take hold without her there. It would not be upon her, the adult, to make any decisions for this bjarn. There was so much wrong with them already; how long had they survived here? Someone must have tended them.
You could stay, hummed a voice in Sanja's memory; her mother's. Clearly the child needed help.

She would wait for the child to sleep again.
Then she would slip away.
