Moonspear Starless Nights

The woman nodded, knowing. There were men who would kiss and run. Perhaps Julian was not one of these men, but there was little to go on. Elentari spoke of children, and a pleasant smile pulled at Sialuk's mouth. Already they had many with Meerkat and Nasamik, but more would not harm this village.

I cannot give children, she said with a wry smile, but village Moonspear is built to nurture children. It is the way of this world that spirits come and go, but Moonspear is made so that the coming and going does not hurt so hard. When there is more love, there is less hurt. She smiled, putting her paw atop Elentari's. This was not to say she would not hurt when one of her lover's left the village, but she would have others to quell her sadness. A tree with many branches does not die when it loses just one, or even two.
