Swiftcurrent Creek [m] When I see stars, that's all they are

poor girl. I thought about Arric saying about her age or false pregnancies, but I don't know if realistically he'd know any of that.

Arric didn't know how old she was, but he wrongly assumed if she's out gallavanting with Lestan shes old enough to get pregnant during heat. Though honestly he didn't recall her scent mixed with Jakouls. But also she wasn't living with them yet, simply visiting.

He studied her and then nodded. Well theres herbs to make it uh go away, but I don't know them. I do however know a healer away from here that may know them? We can go and tell everyone I'm teaching you to be a scout.

The heaviness of what he was offering settled deep in his chest like a burr. He had no problem with the act, but the assumptions that would be made and the secret that was now his to bear. It flayed at his soul like claws. But he'd do it.
