Oh- I'm, trying... Wardruna felt a lump form in her throat at the thought, the fruity breath of Harper overwhelming yet her words of sorrow and comfort more powerful then this. Wardruna's tail sweeps along the snow covered ground as she lowered onto her launches before Harper and whined.

Though Wardruna would never really say it allowed, it hurt her more then it did the others. Maybe more wasnt the right term but, it definitely hit differently, given the fact that it was her own mother which murdered her father. Her young siblings and the others of Northfall could turn their anger and pain onto Freya, the false goddess, the liar, the fake - Wardruna... she just....

Her breath hitched and she shook her head roughly as she tried to collect her thoughts. Maybe she needed more berries herself to work through this. I know it's not forever. This life is just the first. I keep telling myself that but it's still hard. She takes a deep breath, steadier now. So many of us are still so young. Its going to be quite the adjustment without his guidance. All their parents gone, trying to learn on their own. Wardruna was grown, this much was true and she was happy to have ValkyrieD and her mate come, with more time in this life and wiser, sharper minds.
