Blood Trail

Marina found relief in Regulus’ words. She found comfort in his presence, too, and thanked Celeste and Nox for at least sending this man to her. Even during these dark times, she felt like, somehow, things might be okay. “He’s a year old now that’s it’s winter… but I’m sure with some more training he’ll be just as able bodied as any other wolf in the pack.” She shifted a little, offering Regulus a small, sad smile. “…and thank you, Reg, for understanding… I know now that I’ve made the right choice in following you. Her gaze turned towards another male that entered, younger than Regulus and herself. A healer…

“I’d appreciate the help. Go right ahead and do what you need to do, Tornach.” The female shifted her head towards the door again, ears perking for signs of her rainbow marked child. If anything it was he that she was worried for after all this time. The poor thing had been without anyone for too long… and thank goodness for Bones. If anything had happened to him Marina would have been livid with Liar. But it was alright… she didn’t need to focus on that. “If you see a little devil come in, or a rainbow marked male, they’re both safe. The tasmanian devil is Bones, my son’s companion, and really is never too far from my Chasm.” She relaxed a bit more, taking a slow, steadying breath.

“Regulus… I am… not one to fault children for their parents. If I chose to keep this litter… and raise them as Celestians… would that be alright by you?”
