Dragoncrest Cliffs control them all

just to get all the moving events on sobeille’s timeline. single replies are welcome <3

which to move first, body or babe? sobeille stared a long time at both before arriving at a decision.

she returned to bluepeace with both small children crammed in her mouth. carrying them was no easy feat and many times she dropped one or the other in her blind panic.

she raided @Astera’s den for the plush furs they’d hunted together first; arranging @Tusakruŋa and @Panik at the back of her own, sobeille stared at them both, lost to time while seconds spanned into minutes. upon leaving, the sinister gleam of boneflower caught her eye. watch dem, she muttered darkly to the cursed thing, leaving the cubs swaddled in thick pelts of sealskin. 

she called for @Lafayette and @Shadess both, breathlessly explaining. to @Lucette, sobeille asked her to remain guard over them.

then, she stole back to the tangle for the woman’s body.

dragging it back proved more difficult than the cubs had been. more than once she stopped to catch her breath and regain her ebbing strength.

she nearly sobbed in exhausted relief as the den finally rose into view. wedging the body at the den’s mouth, sobeille nosed both puppies towards the cold flank of their mother.

it chilled her to know this was a race against time to save them. there were no living mothers in sapphique. swiftcurrent and the moontribe were too far.

she stared at the small cubs in deep thought for what seemed hours.

suddenly, sobeille swung for the sound.  she could buy a small measure of time through great cleverness, and that’s exactly what sobeille intended to do.
