Moonspear The painful tears of goodbye

He and @Ariadne had run. The children @Rolayne and @Panuk nestled tightly in their furs. He had run as he never had before. Each step took him further from his beloved, the beautiful queen of his heart. Who would forever reside there, but not in the realm he now inhabited. From his snow daughter who had lain still and quiet, but beautiful as her brothers.

Each step had brought more tears than he could contain. He was certain this is how salty rivers were made. He didn't think he'd ever be okay. The tears would never cease and that was okay.

His Samani she deserved them all. She with her beautiful heart, and beautiful soul. The way she laughed and ran. How she loved to run. So he ran faster just for her. Maybe she added wind to his paws. Keeping them all going just for now. Just for now.

Upon the borders of moonspear a desperate, broken tearful howl. Everything was in it. All of it. He called for @Sialuk and @Njord and his heart broke again. All over again. But his sons, his sons were alive. He'd pepper them with kisses. He'd love them for both of them and for their sister. Their little sister who hadn't had a first breath, but had gone with her mother.
