There was no poison in Treepie's words, not that Pala had expected such behaviour from her. I'm not upset with you. We all need our space sometimes. Pala knew that better than anyone. Pulling herself the rest of the way from the den, she sat down. I needed to talk to you sooner or later anyways.

There was no avoiding it, but she could try. At least for a while. Do you want to tell me what's been bothering you? She would certainly rather speak about Treepie's feelings over her own.
