though she could not see nor hear, a primal need rumbled in her belly, a desperate call for something she craved. The disorienting world around her was filled with scents, some familiar and some foreign, but there was one that drew her—the scent of warmth and safety, rich and soothing as it enveloped her.

a weight shifts and fa'liya instinctively nuzzles closer, seeking out the source of the comforting presence. a small mouth cracked open in an instinctive search for nourishment, drawn in by the scent of milk. it was not mama—she could tell from the stranger's scent, but it would quench her hunger all the same. she trembles slightly with effort, mind focused only on the whisper of life that pulsed around her.

a gentle coaxing was like an anchor, urging her to find what she longed for. she felt the warmth bring her closer to the teat so she could latch. fa'liya pressed forward—there is a struggle, brief—before her lips close around the teat to suckle. the taste qwells her cries, warmth spreading through a cold body.
