disbelief poured over heda in an icy baptismal. for a moment, the shock was so great that she could only focus on etienne, not wanting to even glance toward anselm in the moment.
"druid didn't ask you to do that," heda finally said, voice pinched with cold. "i didn't ask you to do that." her hackles prickled beneath the bloodstain of her blackthorn stripe. "etienne was asked to stay. he declined. he wanted to go home. but he stayed with us long enough to teach me some things, glaukos, and to steady druid. we can't force anyone to stay. now you've gone and hurt him."
furious, she stalked toward glaukos now. "you've cost us a healer! and an alliance!" tears were forming in her eyes, tears of rage and fear, that druid and her babies would simply die. that she was dying right this moment.
"anselm. take etienne home," heda ordered in defiance of glaukos, knowing full well that the great man could overturn her order by sheer physical will. to the mountain himself, she added: "she needs you near. and i am going to find a healer, one who will come without being dragged back."
golden eyes blazed up at glaukos. how could he think this was the way to handle anything? and poor druid, all alone through every part of this. 
heda wanted to scream at anselm to get out faster, to leave before she snapped, but she knew he was determined enough to drag-carry etienne back to the hollow.
