Time to settle down

Suspense had been with her mother since Abaven's fall, they'd done a little wandering which had finally helped to ease her pain, she wasn't back to who she'd once been but she was no longer in a dark place. But she was also hyper-aware of her mother's age, and it was giving her anxiety. It was clear her mother didn't want her to be so focused on her, she'd told Suspense multiple times that it was important that she get out there, and meet others, Suspense was 4 years old and had no social life to speak of.

So it had been decided they'd join a pack, find a place where her mother could settle down, and would give Suspense a place to start unsticking herself from her mother. She had conflicted feelings about it if she was being honest but she also knew she needed to make sure she was ready for her mother's death, and being alone when she passed would probably kill her. And so she went. The short conversation at the border felt like a million years but once she'd given her mother a response she seemed to accept they finally made themselves known, Suspense suppressed a shiver, she wasn't sure yet what she was getting into.
