Chacal slept lightly, with her two young toddlers at her side. She flinched and startled into wakefulness when they moved, or when she heard someone approach the den. Perhaps she feared another of her children might be snatched by a bird, and her protective instincts had been heightened.

Her daughter’s voice caused her to awaken. She watched with one eye open as Chani moved toward the den’s entrance, wondering if the girl was sleep-walking. Chacal watched her daughter pause at the den’s entrance, prepared to sweep forward and brush her back in should she move further- 

But the sound of Valravn’s voice steadied her. His voice was soft, but it warmed her heart like the glow of a candle. She settled her head back down, uttering little more than a quiet cough as both reassurance and permission.
