Bearclaw Valley can't complain

The Ash only hoped he was being sincere—even if it was crass and uncalled for. Like many fathers, he would leave his children behind. But the children would have Heda, perhaps even Druid, Anselm, and Etienne, too. Fiona? Well, she would have to see about that. Right now, she had a job to do: find food so they could make it through another day.

She didn't say anything further to the stoic, reserved man as he marched off to his new (temporary?) home. Fiona wasn't terribly keen on him moving so close to Rivenwood, but perhaps he would move on again when he had healed. If he changed his mind and came back to his children, she could only hope that he would heed her request to see her first.
