Moonspear after rain

sister seal! "seeeeaaalll," he practiced just as she'd done, baby blues wide as he looked for her approval. she went on to explain how he'd been small and in mother's tummy and...wait a minute. he'd been in mother's what now?? 

he glanced over towards where sialuk and elentari lay, mouth agape and face in complete disbelief of what he'd just heard. they'd EATEN HIM!?! did that mean they'd eaten maggak?? and his new brothers too??

horror was spread wide across his face now as he imagined himself being devoured like a jellybean.
