A Silver Ray Of Hope

Her mother's excitement was enough to make Zuriel beam happily. She should have known better than to think her mother and brother had gone and left her and forgotten about her. She glanced to Regulus at his growl, seeing how protective he was over their mother. It was rightfully so. Surreal was a mess. Zuriel returned several of her mother's kisses happily before going to walk along beside her mother on the other side of her from Regulus. At her mother's insistence and questioning, Zuriel's ears flicked back. She wished she had happier news to give her long lost family members. She waited till they were in the shade of the trees to speak, her brother interrupting breifly to pull her into a hug. She smiled happily and nuzzled into his large form, her tail thumping against the ground. "You too, brother," she replied and watched as he went to lay beside Surreal. She laid down as well, turning her gaze to her mother's she sighed softly. If only this could simply just stay a happy reunion. "I haven't seen Fiate in ages... I don't know where she's run off to. Father..." she sighed, her gaze falling down to look at her paws. "Father is blind. He was wounded pretty badly when he was attacked on his way out of Arcanum... His sight went in and out for a while and I tried all of the herbs and remedies I could think of, but it finally just left completely. He's... He hardly leaves the den. He tried learning to get around and things after his wounds healed and was actually doing okay, but when we lost you and Regulus..." She swallowed hard around a lump in her throat. "It's like... Like he's given up. He won't get up, won't eat... I hunt for us when I can and I force him to eat sometimes, but..." Her ears flattened against her skull and she whined quietly, trying her best to keep her tears in check. She had done so well being strong through all of this, but now as she spilled everything to her mother she felt herself breaking under the stress. |
