Lion Head Mesa As promised

Ash Paw didn't know of the sadness that lay upon the mesa. But she could see care spots where there hadn't been before.

The mage would have taken the embrace had she known it would help ease more of the girls grief, but she didn't know.

She stood on tired paws, pushing her body upwards and taking a breath to help center the extra weight she now carried. So soon they'd arrive.

She lifted the herbs she had brought, some rare some common. She'd offer them to the girl as they moved inward.
