More stubborn then good sense

A throat cleared, announcing a new arrival. A second later, Lioness leaned against her right foreleg. Kyanite stifled her sniffling with effort. Not knowing who was in front of her. Surely if it was Azure, Lioness would have warned her. Before she could worry too much, the girl introduced herself and Kite recognized the name as Halo's apprentice. Lioness had fetched her a healer that didn't hold a grudge. (The lead healer would never hold a grudge, but that was unfathomable to Kyanite - the Mighty Grudge Holder).


"Istumbledintoabush" She muttered, her words huffed and inaudible. Lioness gave her an warning swipe with a claw. Not enough to break skin, but enough to admonish the youngling. The healer needed to know what had happened if she was to help. Kyanite set her chin stubbornly.  "I stumbled into a bush" She said more clearly now. "With my back leg, everything's stinging and burning." She explained. Then despite her resolve, two more words slipped out. "it hurts" the last was said with a sniffle. Her chin jutted even further, daring the healer to judge her.
