Big sister

Banshee came quickly to Zee's call and the queen smiled proudly as she craned her head into the den. The young healer had a bundle with her, and placed it down gently before offering compliments to the newborn pups. "They are." She agreed, voice warm with affection and love. She knew it was said that childbirth was all worth it in the end, but had never believed it until now. "You can come closer, they don't bite." Her nose motioned towards the little ones and she leaned back so that Banshee might be able to see clearly. "Your brothers Mortis, Azure, and Indigo." One by one her paw touched each pup. They were each rather distinctive, Mort with his dark pelt, Azure with brown, and Indigo a brilliant purple. "And your sister, Aslatiel." And then to her daughter, who resembled Zee's main color the closest.

She beamed back up at Banshee. "Thank you, the herbs are very considerate of you. I hear you're growing into both a fine healer and warrior, we're very proud." She paused a moment, glancing down at the pups while she thought on her words. "I hope you're prepared for all this. To be a big sister is a huge commitment, it'll be more responsibility than you're used to with Deathbelle's little ones." Zee did not know how Banshee got along with her young cousins, though she did hope desperately that the Klein yearling would come to love the new pups. "They'll look up to you, they'll watch you even when you don't think they are." A part of her worried if Banshee would still leave the Armada as she'd tried to before Sirius convinced her otherwise. It'd be heartbreaking for the children to come to love her and watch her walk away.
