Redtail Rise amoroso

gonna wrap this <3 hope things are ok!!

They will become strong, like you and her. He finished instead with a small but genuine smile. No more war to fight but Avicus would no doubt raise them fiercely. He had his own roles to tend.

But… thank you. Softer, warm. The man’s confidences in him meant a great deal. He wanted Prophet to know this.
