Moonspear different place, different time, all the stars are in their prime

Post Saghag thread!

 

Two days had passed since The Incident. Hydra, @Alya, and @Lyra were closer than ever—none let the other out of their sight since the fatal hour of Saghani's passing. Hydra observed the notch in Alya's lobe and felt ill when it did not close. The mark made her sister different, and Hydra disliked this as much as she knew Alya did. Lyra, too. Lyra had deemed it would not close, that there would always be that gap within the right ear. And so on the second night after all this had transpired, Hydra called to order A Meeting. 

She settled within the center, head held high and eyes cool. Behind her came her sisters, and Hydra looked to Alya. At once her eyes softened, warmed; she could not help but feel at fault for this. And so, wasting no more breath or time, Hydra simply said, None of us will hurt alone. Her head swung toward Lyra. Do to my ear what has been done to Alya's, she demanded, And I will do the same for you. We will always be of one body, it had its uses, though they knew in their own ways they were not the same. They had newfound interests that sometimes aligned and sometimes did not, but they would always be together and have one another. Her ears flicked. Though her word was as good as command, in this instance she wanted to know they were of one mind. Agreed?
