Tamsyn's mutter reached her ears, and Zee's expression shifted subtly to one closer to pity. It was hard to believe for her that any mother would be indifferent to the death of their child, though she knew neglectful and even abusive parents existed in this land and others. Her tongue clicked in an audible tisk, and she tried to give the woman a small smile as she stepped back from the edge willingly towards her. A part of her wondered if simply speaking to Mortis would have drawn him away from the edge too, and if her aggressive tackle of the boy was unwarranted. She'd never know, now.

"He's with our healer, receiving treatment." Her response came after a beat, her gaze shifting off the woman and onto the ground. "He's young, only a few months old... and I hope still young enough to be steered the right way." Her eyes slid shut to hide the pain within them, and when they reopened she redirected her attention upon Tamsyn to try and salvage the situation.

While it was odd how Tamsyn seemed to doubt her mother's ability to care, Zee was careful upon pushing on it too hard. She did not want to pain the she-wolf any further. "My home, it's a bit of a walk but not as far as some." Her muzzle turned to point south west, out past the volcano. "If you'd like, you could come and share a meal. You could tell me your story, perhaps I could gleam some insight into the mind of my own troubled child." It was an offer Zee knew Tamsyn could refuse, though she wouldn't be the first broken soul to find their way to the Armada. "It could be a safe place for you to lay your head, we would protect you until you find your way." The more she spoke, the more she wished for it. It would not sit right with the horned queen to have this stranger back in the world where she could simply end her life when Zee looked away.
