Ocean's Breath Plateau Safe and sound…finally

“I do not think there is any harm in Tuft searching, if that is what he would like, but, yes, Rodyn and Heph can surely be involved. Thank you, Kukutux. I appreciate the assurance that these children will have a place to land within the Moon packs.” What she didn’t say, was that if it came to be that they did not have a pack, or family to care for them, she wanted to be that for them. They need someone who can guide them, they were still only pups, after all. They needed a mother—and that was why she wanted to bring them to Hearthwood. Her responsibility, children of her soul.

Not only for the fact it was where she resided, but she couldn’t possibly fathom leaving Reverie and her daughters. A promise was made and she would keep her word, but what would that mean for the kids? She half hoped they had family, a pack, who would rejoice in their return and she would not have to make such an awful decision. The other half of her hoped they were nothing more than abandoned children, lost and in need of her. 

She knew the possibility of Reverie refusing to absorb them was high considering she just had her babies, but it was worth a shot. If anything, Reina would escort them to one of the Moon packs herself, but her heart felt a heaviness settle in at the thought.

“We should let them rest for now. I was thinking of searching for herbs and berries to dry, so I may carry them in a skin. I don’t want to be as unprepared as I was when I found them.” The red healer hadn’t necessarily been speaking to anyone in particular, her eyes glued to the kids as she had been lost in thought. A yawn escaped her then, suddenly feeling the weight of her life. 

“Well, maybe I will sleep first.”
