Tormented Tarns footprints on the sand

looking for a quick thread, and fade to black if it gets anywhere! Tags for reference only!

After stabilizing Foxglove, Dhalia returned to the Tarns where the child had first fallen ill. She'd not had much time to examine the spiders who made their homes among the trees, but now that she knew the girl was safe in the paws of @Reverie and @Dusty Rose, Dhalia set herself to the task.

The first night had been fruitless.

The second brought an odd tiredness and a yearning for companionship she certainly wouldn't find in the Tarns.

It was distracting, to say the least. And peculiar. Why now, when she'd never felt this before? Dhalia tried to focus on finding the spider, but her eyes and mind drifted elsewhere.
