Firefly Glen And what once was a world is a star

It was obvious by Meerkat's reaction that she was quite shaken by the news. He reached out to touch his nose to her cheek, and he could feel her struggling with her emotions. Like her, he was at a loss for how to process the death of their little brother, and the others who had also perished within the past month. He stayed close, allowing her several minutes to breathe, and sink against him if she wanted to. He was silent for some time, until he eventually reached up to run his muzzle over the top of her head. He stood up, and shook his pelt out. "Let's go find a place to rest," He said, his voice a bit hoarse. He didn't want to draw attention to the fact that it wasn't likely safe along the borders, given the fact there were other predators lurking in the wilds lately- but he felt it was smart nonetheless not to delay too long just in case.
