The humid, sometimes swamp-like nature of the mangrove was a refreshing change for her. For so many seasons, memories had plagued her incessantly, following her like a dark raincloud -- and here, things were so different that she didn't need to be reminded of the familiar territory that Seracia had once controlled, nor the flat plains of Valhalla that she had known as home once. This was a fresh start. Still, she wished Isolde and Quintus would here, but perhaps in time they might show themselves.. "I agree," she stated easily. It was difficult for her too, though much more enjoyable than anything. "I can't believe I spent so long without you kids." A smile would tease her lips as she leaned over to nudge him, a bit playfully. "Have you spent much time with Cassius or Arian recently?" came her sudden question. Perhaps spending more time with Leo would do both of them some good, even though she knew her youngest litter hadn't spent much time with her oldest children, not as much as they should have. "I think they could use some care," she admitted finally when he alluded to the fact that he wished there was more he could do. "They've been through a lot -- I'm not entirely sure what, but they're fragile. The rest of the pack is fine. We're all settling in. But I think those two could use a good friend right now." Her smile softened as she gazed at him. Perhaps soon, once their ranks filled out a bit more, they would begin to hold meetings... but for now, it seemed they were all simply adjusting to being around one another again. |
