A spiral note now

Healing was a slow process, but bit by bit Bellamy was opening up. Talking with Gav, interacting with the health counselors of the Hallows, talking with a yearling who seemed to feel for her situation and wanted to give her company, and meeting with Acere was all contributing to the woman’s recovery. She was feeling more like herself, gaining confidence, gaining the will to live again, bit by bit. Since the Bonfire she had started leaving her room in the day to sit in the courtyard during the mornings. She started to smile again. She still missed Gavroche, longing for him, but the more she saw how happy and rambunctious her grandson was, and how he interacted, she was reminded that even though he didn’t remember her, he was here. He was here and spreading his love in other ways to those around him. She had begun to accept that was how things were, and once she had done that, things became easier.

A familiar call at the borders requested her and Bellamy’s ears perked. She had been in the courtyard as it went up, and the woman rose instinctively to meet it. Would Artroias show as well? Her brow furrowed. Fenix… she had failed him as well. He had come to her with ambitions to become a leader. But she had started picking up on his own wavering behaviors. She had hoped that he would bounce back… but like herself it seemed that he hadn’t been able to. Her limbs carried her across the Hallows lands in the direction of the borders. She needed to meet with him.

…and when Bellamy saw him her expression wavered. He bore Ethne’s scent but he looked as she had. Thin, waning. Bellamy approached with ears slipping back. “You had better be here to seek aid, Fenix, and not just to see me.” While her tone was serious, there was a gentle motherly tone to it. He wasn’t too much younger than she was, and she would pause only once she stood before him. “I was hoping you would find your hope among our pack, but you seem to have fallen just as I had...” Sadness flickered across her face. “I’m sorry… I was so lost in my own grief I hadn’t checked on you…” Guilt came back… who else in Ethne was suffering because she had been too weak to be there for them?
