Who cast 'raise the dead'?

She was still catching her breath, but she didn’t blame Iho. he had kept her quiet and kept her down. Otherwise, she definitely would have charged out there and started a fight. Really. And then who knows how much trouble they would be in? “I forgive you” she whispered back. She didn’t want to move from his side any time soon, there was a measure of safety to be found right here.

A part of her warred with the desire to show bravado and claim she didn’t need protecting, but a much larger part of her knew that if he left her alone without his circle of protection she would be horrified, petrified and likely dead of a heart attack about now. He belonged to her, pledged to her. She wouldn’t give him up for the world. She giggled a little when he gestured over his heart. The motions reminding her of that first promise. She swiped his paw and brought it to her own heart. “I know, Iho. We’re in this together.”

Iho dragged a blanket over them, the familiar plush warmth of it settling over her. Reminding her that the outside world had resumed its familiar noises. The strange happening seemed over, for now. She leaned back against him, content to at least catnap if not fully sleep. Then Iho’s voice whispered gently out between them. Her ears perked up in surprise at the unexpectedly familiar words. Softly, whispering, she began to sing along with him.
