Moonspear Calm Water

Njord passed his leader a stiff nod of acknowledgment, of promise, that he would compliment Meerkat’s kindness and earn his place among Moonspear, just as she had once attained with Sapphique.

A part of him wished to know more about Meerkat and Sialuk’s history… but he wouldn’t pry into such private things. It sounded like the two of them had seen war together… and maybe that was all Njord would ever need to know.

“Ah must ask of ye another kindness,” Njord requested. “Meerkat hasnae been feelin’ well. Her pregnancy… it’s different this time. Maybe because of… of all of it.” His muzzle gestured broadly, accented by a shrug of his hale shoulders. Just as trust between the husband and wife healed, their lives went to hell in a handbasket. Njord knew Meerkat had been deeply affected.

“Ah ken she seeks ye for medicine tae help her feel well… but what more can I do for her? There must be somethin’…” Njord’s pelagic gaze pleaded for an answer. There was no stronger kryptonite that affected a husband than an invisible foe.
