It's All Going Wrong

The male would sit, even as Emily emerged from the den. There was a look of relief on his face when he saw that she did not carry the epidemic, that, thank god, she was well. Weary shoulders would slump forward, and the truth of what was going on was upon him. Even before he could answer she was nuzzling him gently, licking him, trying to comfort him. But comfort would be hard to come by right now. There was a lot going on... And in losing Meili... He had lost a part of his life. If he lost Emily now he didn?t know what he would do. At her sudden snarl Arwel would jump a bit, finding his voice. Emily had pushed the rabbit back to him, encouraging him to eat, while he seemed to be in a daze. Who could blame the male? He had lost his only surviving kin. He had left his pack behind... And now... What did the future hold? For him? For them? Arwel would give a soft sigh, body pressing into hers gently as he spoke, finding words to explain what had happened, even if it was hard to tell her the truth. ?I... I left Valhalla, Emily.? He wouldn?t go into the details about leaving yet, but there was still something important that she needed to know. Arwel would look to the ground, tears forming in his eyes once more. Meili... She had been taken away far before her time. He was the elder sibling... It should have been him who passed on first. Not her. He would give a sigh before he continued, pressing on. ?Meili is dead... She caught the epidemic that has been spreading through Alacritia. I know not how it spread, but... She had been alone... I... I thought that her mate was still with her... But... She suffered alone. I did not come to her side until it was too late... She... Was able to say her last words to me... But that was it. She?s gone... And I?m partially to blame...? Arwel closed his eyes, giving a whine. ?I?m so thankful that you?re okay...? He would add softly, praying that this wasn?t just a dream. "Normal. Speech. Thought. You." |
