Recluse was clinging desperately to her remaining children, not literally but it was true that she certainly felt more protective of her youngest litter, though she was doing her best not to smother them. A hard balance to strike, because if she was being honest Recluse wanted to never let her children go, to never let them leave her sights. She was forcing herself to let herself trust that Eraithus was capable of watching after their children, she would have broken without him and she loved him all the more for it. He had told her his plan was to gather up the children that were awake at dusk and would take them out on an adventure, promising they'd be back soon enough once the moon was fully in the sky and that he'd leave any children who didn't want to go or were still asleep. She'd agreed reluctantly but understood she needed to try and learn to trust the children would be safe with him. So when she woke up that evening there was a brief moment of panic as she was aware that much of her litter was missing, calming only when she realized that Eraithus was also gone and that there was still one small child curled at her side, her little red and white boy. The woman took a few deep breathes, calming herself before she tipped her head down to press her forehead into the small boy, a gentle, somber movement that helped to ground her. Then she would gently nose at him to try and rouse her son. |
