Hoshor Plains Heart like yours is rare to find

You. The word hovered behind his lips, the sound stifled harshly at the back of his throat. His cheeks flushed, warming as the blood rushed, he pushed away an embarrassed smile. “Just being here, helping Kaistleoki remain strong is enough for me Speedy.” He would do anything to protect her and her home. “And help you find Castor. I’ll do anything I can to help find him, you name it.”

Snorting at her insinuation toward failure, Emrik shook his head. “Come now Speedy. You haven’t failed anyone, medicine doesn’t always work. That just the way it is, sometimes it just takes a little luck.” Emrik said as much as he could without seeing Evergreen for himself. A frown drew his brows together, the more he heard the more he wished he had stayed, if only to help Speedy deal with everything. “And I’m glad to be here.” He confided gently, dipping his head against her fur.
