Redtail Rise you need someone to take your pain for you?

The way he spoke to her hurt like the knowledge that Aventus was gone; that she was alone again. Even now, she was alone; it was clear Ancelin no longer saw her as his mother, and that was her fault. The bear was testing her now, seeing how she would react—with emotion or with logic. He was born of the bear, and she would need to remind him of that, but slowly; she held no ground with him now, but she could change that. She had to.

I'm glad you're okay. She needed to tread carefully if she wanted to earn his trust and loyalty back. He was long past being loyal to her for the simple fact that she was his mother. But he was strong, she could tell, and she wanted to help him be stronger. The bear wanted him, and Arielle would give the bear what it wanted. I hope you made them pay, she added, tipping her muzzle towards his scars.
