Arrow Lake graue himmel

for @Blodreina <3 @Ingram & @Praimfaya welcome ofc

another child for diaspora, the last. mahler woke with conflicted thoughts of the vale upon his mind, mingled with a midwife’s worry over olive. he must go and see her again, the gargoyle decided, gathering up his birthing supplies and heading at a steady lope for blodreina’s birthing den.
a fierce and robust woman, he had not been summoned during her travails. but takiyok was equally strong, equally feral, and her birth had been long and difficult. therefore mahler prepared himself for a weakened mother, perhaps a sickly child.
pausing on the shelter’s threshold, the man cleared his throat to announce his presence, waiting before entry as he had always done.
