Fight To Keep It Down

Duchess had been traveling far from the band and it was rare if she had ever really showed her face in camp anymore. She occasionally stopped in with kills for the group, but otherwise kept to herself and sometimes slept in places outside of camp. This was nothing new of course, not since the loss of the pups. But it seemed to be growing worse as time went on, since her last couple encounters with Indigo at least.
She had never really come back here, she was always constantly reminded of what they had lost. It felt like ages ago that she had birthed the stillborn pups and she felt like a completely different woman since then. Not in any better ways and even she knew that.
When she came across the falls she first wanted to avoid them, but something drew her in. Maybe it was all the time she had spent away from the band and Indigo. And soon her paws found their way to the graves of the three tiny bodies. She couldn't bring herself to look at where they were buried, her eyes forward at the waters and stone of the falls. She laid down in front of the grown over grave, her cheek laying down just under them. Her whole body shut down as she tried not to feel anything and clear her mind. She didn't know if this would help her at all.
