She inhaled, and nodded. She knew that the pause would go well above Baldr's head, but she sensed that Tamar missed her departed children. A blink and a furrowing of her brow was all she could muster for a second as she thought of Thorsen and Torhild, who had chosen to remain with their father. She was not particularly adept at offering words of sympathy, though she felt it well enough. 

She would have to remember the names, so her lips twitched slightly after they were each pronounced. Meadow would be easy enough- but she knew she might need to hear the other two names more than once to retain them. "You have a good community then," She commented warmly, proudly. To host two litters in one year from complete couples who led all together was a good sign. "This one," She said, plopping a large paw atop Baldr's head to earn a husky giggle from the boy, "is one of three but that is all we have for children this year. My first daughter will come of age next year, but ah," She said, with a shrug, letting her paw slip to the ground. "Who knows. There is no one here her age," She said with a faint chuckle and a shrug, her eyes shimmering as she looked to Tamar- wondering if perhaps she might involve both of her broods in a visit to Epoch.
