Noctisardor Bypass raserei

Many words were said in the following moments. Druid lost her battle against the tears, her vision blurring completely as they began to trickle down her snout and form a puddle between her feet.

Only when Mahler’s soft growl rejoined the cacophony did Druid lift her eyes. No, she whispered vehemently. Only Witch would hear as the Graf declared he was finished fighting. Druid agreed with him, her very soul sagging in defeat, but she was beginning to realize they would never be able to go back to the life before the raid.

Druid didn’t notice when Mahler left, because her world shrunk to two wolves: Sequoia and Witch. No, she repeated her earlier answer, only loudly enough for everyone to hear. Her voice shook. So much was ruined but one thing was certain. I’m not leaving Rivenwood. Her shining eyes found her sister’s, knowing Witch was, as always, of the same heart and mind.
