Whitefish River i tell you the things i know now

for @Eilidh <3

with all that had gone on, lasher soon found that he had shirked his duty unto the delicate daughter named in the tongue of donnelaith. constantine had gone his own way indefinitely, casmir had become sullen and withdrawn -- he intended to get to the bottom of that very soon -- and his gossamer child had returned from her own travels.

it was a cold dawn when lasher stood upon the edge of the plateau and called for his prodigal daughter, moving with slow steps to the closest edge of the river that flowed closest to their packlands.
