Her children were unhappy here, their home was back in the south, and keeping them here was unfair. Ravenna had kept to herself, pointing undoubtedly, though the russet woman never really lost track of her. But it was time for them to return home. She would stand in the center of her temporary home, having given Odette time to settle. Standing in the center of the territory, her russet crown would tip back, a call leaving her lips as she summoned the alpha to her. She knew that the woman would do fine with her, but she needed to do what was best for her family, for her children. Haunches would fold beneath her, tail curling around her hips as she settled into wait. After, she would seek out Ravenna, gather the girl up so that they could all return to the south together. Perhaps she would seek out Valentine, though she had no idea if her nephew would take her. Perhaps he could at least keep her children, provide them a solid home, even if he didn't want trouble from his mother with her presence. Talk like this

Odette had known from the beginning that Sibelle's presence would only be temporary. She had an idea that her children would also grow to despise the harsh climate. A sigh slipped from the woman's lips as she walked around the borders of her new home. As the winter season melted into spring, the atmosphere surrounding her lands remained the same. Snow, cold temperatures, and the test to survive the harshness would stay. They were her favorite parts of the North and that is why she would stay. Sibelle's call clearly rang through the setting, revealing her chosen spot to sit before Odette even reached her. Tan paws carried Odette towards the russet-furred woman, red and blue eyes glittering with a knowing glance. She approached the former Queen of Solstice and gave her a friendly nuzzle in greeting. "I have a feeling I know what you are going to say," Odette admitted, greeting her friend with warm tones. The woman wasn't afraid to have her former ruler leave; she just didn't want to let her go without knowing she would be all right. Speech

She would not have to wait long. Odette would arrive, a knowing smile on her face. She had made it clear from the very beginning that her presence here was not going to be permeant. She would return the smile, though hers was tinged with a sadness. She would be sad to leave the woman behind, but she needed to go what was best for her kids. Then you know its time. She would pause briefly. If you ever need me, Ill be in the south, just call. She would smile, her words earnest. She would not leave the woman high and dry. Her tail would wag slowly. I havent gotten to talk to my brother, Taurig, but if he stays, put the old man to use. She would laugh softly, her tones teasing as she spoke of her brother. She would miss him if he stayed, but she couldn't drag her brother all over the place, he had to live his own life too. Talk like this

The fact was that Odette would miss Sibelle a lot. Even though their paths were parting, she knew that they would cross in the future before she knew it. Red and blue eyes looked over Sibelle's face as she explained where she would be if she needed her. A soft sigh slipped from her massive frame and became a tiny mist in front of her face. "I won't hesitate to look you up if I need you, Sibelle." Her fluffy tail then rose up and over her hips before curling into a beautiful cinnamon bun-like roll. The colors stayed side by side as she felt a tailwind of cold air rush behind her large body. "Taurig will have a special place here, Sibelle, if he chooses to stay." Silently, she hoped that he would. She had grown fond of the cobalt male lately and wanted to make sure he was safe within her borders. "I wish it had worked out for you, though, living here. But, I know that you have to look after your kids and their best interests." "Talk" "You" Think
