Her breath caught in her throat as Heda assured her about the children. They missed her. They’d grown withdrawn in her absence. Druid bit the inside of her cheek, blinking away the tears that welled in her eyes.
It seemed Heda needed some reassurances too, so Druid soothed,

I feel it in my bones: the danger has passed. I’m not going to get sick. I’m not going to go mad.

I archive threads if my partner goes inactive and/or there are no new replies for several weeks. I'm more than happy to continue an archived thread if you're interested. Just revive it (via maintenance) and tag me in your next reply. :)
