Swiftcurrent Creek [m] hope ur okay

@Arric and @Mae were on the mend, which meant that Eshe found some time to herself.  She’d realized this as she meandered around the creek like a zombie, and stopped mid-step as she had her “eureka!” moment.

In the wake of her realization, everything else that she’s foregone in their care came rushing back: concern about @Akavir and how he fared—especially since she hadn’t been great to be around, about @Cygnet’s recovery and develops ent we’re going, and the hole in her heart that yearned for the baby,  and @Wren, who had been in @Silvertongue’s care. There were the superficial worries, too,  like her coat, which was unkempt and had lost its sheen, the way she hasn’t bathed for a few days, and ultimately the sheer exhaustion of it all.

She’d hit her limit long ago, but had somehow pushed through.

She reclined, eyes wide and teary as she lost herself in her thoughts, her eyes glued to the floor as she slumped over.  There was so much she had to address and tend to, but she felt like she couldn’t. It was all too much for her—right now, all she felt she could do was sit in it and let it consume her.
