The pair moved up the trail and Resin kept a close eye on the girl, her granddaughter, though she hadn't revealed that quite yet. Ember continued to speak, talking about Granny Tam first. Resin's ears tipped backwards for a moment. She missed Tamsyn but she knew that the woman was safe and loved in the living world. That made their separation easier. She did wonder though if, when Tamsyn's time came, the dark lady would find her way to these very mountains or if she would end up elsewhere. Time, whatever that was, would tell.

Ember went quiet for a moment as though deep in thought, then she continued, this time speaking of her 'other grandmother'. The view of Artorias came from the girl's mouth and Resin chuckled softly. Yes, that did indeed sound like something that her son would say. The ash and obsidian fae didn't quite share those views. She simply was who she was. She protected her family to her last breath and that was all that a wolf like herself could ask for. She died just how she had lived: in battle, fighting and clawing for supremacy.

A sadness filled the girl's voice and she looked at her little paws. Her father was sad when he spoke of her grandma. A sad little smile pulled at the fae's scarred maw and she moved forward, nuzzling behind the girl's ear. "It's hard to lose someone that you love," she spoke softly. "Your father is a very good man and his mother is incredibly proud of him."

Leaning down, Resin gently scruffed the girl, careful of her teeth. With two big leaps, she bounced from boulder to bolder, depositing them on a smooth stone shelf that looked out over the valley below. The pup was gently deposited on the ground before the ashen fae slid down to lay on her belly, a thick foreleg on either side of the girl. A chill wind blew and Resin pulled the child in close to her thickly furred chest. "Everything that you see belong to the Carpathians," she told the girl. "Some day, after you're old and grey and have lived a long, happy life, you can choose to come here and live with your grandmother." Again Resin nuzzled into the top of the child's head. "I'd be glad to have you. All of you."
