Ouroboros Spine There lies the heart of sunrise

Her brother had been wounded by their father. She had too. But he had known him a little longer, a little better and thus it hurt him worse. And she wished she could take that away for him. But despite it all. Mojag had proven time and time again, despite their beginnings. Mojag was their mother's son and he was a brother to be proud of. 

Ajei smiled sweetly. He is, and I am glad for it. But mother has taught me to provide for myself if I must and of course I have a big brother who would help me. She smiled at him again. 

She nodded her head. It was very good to see you and please don't be a stranger. If there should be children to be at this hearth again. I want them to know their uncle and know him well.

She would not accept his leaving all the time. He would return to be there for her children. This was a task she would ask of him if she must. But she hoped her gentle request was enough.
