Lost and Found

Hunger. That was all she knew, at the moment - she tried, tried so hard to hunt, and yet there was nothing. She tried fishing, but all attempts failed. She tried going to the prairie, but it was hard when she did not know the techniques. All attempts ended in failure. She was bumbling, slow; at one point she face-planted a tree tracking a mouse. That had been the end of that. Now, she was just curled into a ball, a soft whine leaving her. At least there was water, but at times that seemed to only heighten her hunger. She felt so empty. So alone. Why had they all left? Why was she left behind? She didn't... she didn't understand. Why didn't Daddy come back for her? He took Wisper and Ember, but she wanted to stay and now Donostrea was gone... why didn't he come back? Did he leave forever?

A sob shook her tiny frame even as she curled further in upon herself, sightless eyes closed to the world. If only she wasn't blind; if only she wasn't so clumsy! Then she wouldn't be like this. It hurt so much.

Why?
