sorry ma

Samara sighed again as Ruin responded, her resolution flagging a little as her daughter offered her a few tiny apology kisses. But no she had to try and help her daughter understand. She gently nosed back at Ruin, knowing that things were going to get a little heavy. "I was angry because I was scared." She said softly, trying to meet her daughter's mismatched eyes.

"I know it seems like sometimes your father and I just want to ruin the fun but our rules are there to protect you and your siblings. Not all wolves or places are as safe as Abaven." She paused for a moment, not wanting to scare her daughter but needing to make sure Ruin understood why it scared her so much. "I was scared because when I realized you'd left the pack lands I was scared I wouldn't ever see you again. That cliff is dangerous because if you'd fallen off you could have gotten hurt, and I might not have been able to make it better." She didn't want to scare Ruin to bad so the best she could offer was a simplified version of the mangled image of her daughter she'd been plagued with. "And you were found by my sister, your aunt. But that doesn't mean that you can necessarily trust her. I know my sister and she's not as friendly as your family in Abaven." She wanted to make it clear she wasn't just worried about Hela though. "And that's true of other strangers, sometimes strangers can be dangerous, they could take you away from your father and I."

She sighed again, fishing out a paw to try pull her daughter into an embrace. "I got angry because I love you so much, and the idea of not seeing you again was scary. Sometimes adults act angry when they're scared."
