Emberwood seven skulls

Is she of close blood? Meleys questions, when he speaks of a new Lanzadoii woman who had come to join their new clan. Was she truly cousin or was this more of a loose term he used due to her being Lanzadoii? Unknowingly, at least yet, @Suliya was of Muradoii blood. Her brother would have been bound to all three clans if he were to marry her. 

If she was not to be a choice of his, it was still good to have her among them. She could help the others learn their ways. Meleys didn't take herself to be much of a teacher herself. Though she had birthed four years now, all pups had perished before she had been able to begin to teach them properly. The phantom far more enjoyed enforcing their customs instead of teaching them. 

Meleys tongue clicked at the roof of her mouth at the mentioning of their father. Of his foolishness with Red Leaf. She would not put salt on an open would. At least not to her little brother, but the agreement was there in her eyes. He had learned, at least. The ways of their people had not been written without reason. 

I do hope your not suggesting me? She was twice his age! Surely Grey Man had no intention to wed an old witch as herself.
