Quiet Reflection

She also hoped that teaching others to become warriors would give her mother purpose, but one never knew. "Maybe you should go see her one of these days. Shake her world up a bit." Io was sure that her mother was tied if being babied by herself and Tamsyn. The woman still couldn't walk or even rise on her own. She might be grumpy about being seen in such a way. It might do her good.

Io did remember Tamsyn volunteering herself for the running of Reaper, she just wasn't sure if she would go through with it. If the new fighter could manage to best the others and she truly deserved the position, more power to her. Iolaire was just doubtful. She backed Roan of course, but she also wanted to keep him home with her. Killian was her second bet. A young, strong buck that could hold the position and protect those around him.

When Sirius pulled her close and said that she would make a great mother, Io laughed aloud. "I would, wouldn't I?" She had no doubts that she and Roan would be amazing parents. Especially with the support system of her family all around her. She would be content with just one little pup for the rest of her life. Io wasn't greedy by any means.
