Moonspear [m] Stolen Light

The silence hung between them only for a few seconds. Then he caught on. Sensed something was amiss. Slowly, she met his eyes again, nodding mutely. Briefly she glanced back at the spot where she was helping him dig. Then to his ulaq. "Do you mind?" They could come back to his garden work later. She felt that this conversation they were about to have, was best suited somewhere more private. Where they could focus only on one another, with no distractions.

Provided he was willing to set aside the garden for now, Elentari rose and moved towards his ulaq. She left it up to him if they would go inside. Breaking her silence again, her head was turned down, ears flat back. "Argent has left us. Me. Acrux and Maggak. Sialuk and her unborn children." Her voice was hollow, where she thought it would have been thick with emotion. The pain was there, thinly veiled beneath the surface.
