Redtail Rise you did not order invisible pie, you hate invisible pie

She didn't miss the way his eyes traveled to her rounded sides. They never talked about it, yet the pregnancy continued to progress; the children continued to grow within her, and soon there would be no ignoring the reality of their situation. For now, though, she didn't want to bring it up; she just wanted to spend time with Aves without any of the usual despair that seemed to follow them wherever they went. 

To her surprise, he was the one to bring up the children, though she could see the discomfort he felt talking about them. Probably not, she agreed. It looked a bit dangerous for small pups. But I think it would be a good place for a new healing den. She would be able to replace most of what she had to leave in the valley. A home would be nice too, eventually. She wanted desperately to feel like somewhere here was home. Right now, she felt like an intruder, about to add more mouths to feed to a pack that knew nothing about her. She worried what that would mean for the safety of the pups. Hopefully the fact that they were related to Avicus would award them some protection. 

Your sister had her children, Arielle said after a moment. Have you met them yet? She had wanted to check on her when she heard the news, but Avicus didn't know her, and she didn't want to upset the new mother. Plus, she knew Ashlar was most likely taking care of things from the healing end. It was still difficult being a healer here, where no one trusted her. She hoped they would all come around with time.
