What a weird mess her life had become. Adjusting to motherhood had not been an easy thing for her, but it was something she had been enjoying. That is, she was until Vereux suddenly vanished. Her worry for him over powered any other emotions she might have been feeling and she searched for him every waking moment. But, of course, it wasn't like she could leave their children. She would wake up in the morning, if she had been able to sleep at all, make sure they were feed and cared for before she left to continue her search. She always came back just as the sun was setting, sometimes making it in time to see her children to bed, sometimes not. She was simply lucky to have Amalia to look after them in her absence. Without her beautiful wife it wouldn't have been possible to search for her brother and husband as long as she had. But she couldn't do it any more. She was constantly exhausted and hadn't been able to do a single thing to help Roman with Regium since her sister had taken over. She felt guilty not only to Regium and Roman but to her children. She had made a vow to be more present than her parents had been for her and she hadn't followed through with that vow.

When Roman's howl echoed through the territory she quickly rose to her paws and began to gather up her pups to take them with her, but then she heard Drashiel's howl as well. Ah, so that is what this meeting was about. Even in her semi-absent state she was aware of the combining of their packs. She wasn't against it in any way, she even thought it was a good idea. It would just take some getting used to. She led her little family over to where the meeting was being held, coming over to where Talvi was standing with a tired smile. In all honesty she would rather be sleeping and sorting through the storm of emotions that Vereux's absence had brought. "I'm right here, sister. You've missed a lot. I'm glad you're back." She had arrived just in time to hear Talvi's exclamation and she settled onto her haunches next to her, resting her shoulder against her blue sister's shoulder. She glanced back to make sure her young pups had come along as well before focusing back on Roman and Drashiel, ready for this meeting to be over so she could rest.
