Moonspear All of the places we ever go

It had been years since she’d seen her savior, yet Towhee’s feelings remained as strong as ever. She favored Bridget with a beaming smile, her dour mood entirely forgotten now as she wondered if she should go in for the hug. It felt perhaps a bit too familiar, so instead she gently nudged one of the woman’s shoulders after they moved back from the borders a ways.

I’m sorry I haven’t kept in touch, Dr Bridget, Towhee acknowledged, but I’m good, all things considered. I haven’t had any more near-death experiences… well, not like that one, anyway.

Yes, she’d gone through a lot in her life but that snakebite had been her closest call to date. To think, she would’ve missed out on so much if Bridget hadn’t saved her life back then. Towhee wouldn’t have known any of her grandchildren, not to mention given birth to several of her own children. It was a sobering thought.

What about you? Are you still living in Brecheliant? she asked, wondering what might’ve brought her here to Moonspear.
