Meadowlark Prairie lullabye

that night, chani had tried to sleep.
her hunts had been unsuccessful today, and so with gnawed belly chewing on the edge of her energy, the girl got up and walked the meadow once more.
it was odd to be so far from the sea. she did not like it, and yet it was exhilarating.
a song in french floated beneath the moon. chani had not yet seen she was not alone.
