A Song For The Stars
08-29-2018, 03:38 PM
So absorbed in her own grief that she had missed the soft wonder from the younger figure behind her. But she did not miss when her sister added her voice to the mournful song. When the song ended she closed her eyes and took a deep breath, when she felt calm once more she opened her eyes and looked to her sister. "I thought you where asleep little sis." She looked around them seeing the fireflies floating over the water. "Though I don't blame you your sleeplessness." She got to her paws then, walking softly to her sister, she would press her nose to her sisters skull before she looked back up at the stars. She thought of the many nights she had with her mother that looked much like this one... Thought of the so few Ly had... She wondered if she remembered their mom... She had been so young when the starry woman had died... "Have I ever told you of how mama named you?" Vela remembered it like it was yesterday... It was soon after her sister had been born on a night much like this one... The three of them under the stars... Though Lyrea wouldn't remember, she had only been a few days old... It was one of the few moments where they where all three together. |
