Family Matters

Yoshi frowned as Riv gave an explanation as to where he’d been. So his aunt was dead now too? There seemed to be more to the story, but the she-wolf did not wish to pry. Not right now. Things seemed to be tense enough without digging at wounds that were not quite healed yet. Still, Rivaxorus seemed to offer a solution to her worry, and Yoshiko continued to listen quietly. Renhett… did he really think she could help her sister? Could her sister even be helped? It hurt to question that, but Yoshiko was beginning to wonder…

“Abaven huh?” The female asked softly, leaning into the gentle nuzzle. “I wouldn’t mind going there I suppose…” Though inwardly she was still fighting with herself. She looked into Riv’s eyes, ears flicking back as she continued to speak. “I know leaving will be hard… but for the sake of the kids, for Kait… It may be better…” The female glanced towards her young ones nibbling upon the meal.

“It’s just… what if we can’t find Kait?” Yoshi closed her eyes. “Our pups have to be our priority Riv… as much as I love my sister we might need to leave her behind for now…” It hurt her to say that. The Gods above knew it hurt her to say that. “But…” She opened her eyes again, ears perking forward as she tried to force a smile onto her face.

“I’ll leave it up to you to begin their lessons… I… I’m going to look for Katie in a little bit. See if I can’t find some sort of scent trail that might hint to where she is.”
