Qeya River thorn blood

how long would they be gone? how long would she tell ksura that they might return soon? she knew he had lost his own son but the women’s children had come first, a wife had come first.

but who remained?

the bullheaded man was not unexpected. she had seen this type of occurance before. so very rare, but so very real. he sought to challenge leadership, but who remained?

her explanation was one of furious teeth as she charged to him. she might have once liked him for this displayed strength, she might have use for him, but for now he was only a thorn in her side. in dire needs of being dealt with before she could know what to do with him.
