Strange sights

Her heart pounded harder than it probably ever had before, to the point Iskra was certain it might just explode! Racing towards Arwen and her Aunt Caia, Iskra came skidding up to a halt, chunks of snow flying in all directions as she knelt down to nuzzle Arwen and lavish her with affection. Thank goodness the little glowing kiddo had been picked up after her stupid guardian got too far.

Looking up at Caia with a half-hearted smile Iskra mumbled, "Sorta, I've been watching her." She may owe a slightly better explanation of how she came to be in charge of the little darling, but for now Iskra was preoccupied with gathering the little blue child up against her chest so she could try to warm her while nibbling at her little cheeks.

Looking up at Caia again, she added, "Thank you for picking her up."
