It took little time for Sólúlfur to heed her summons, though upon arrival, Dal could tell she'd caught her in the middle of something, but whether it was hunting or prepping food for the cache, she didn't know.
Oh, Sólúlfur, I hope I didn't interrupt you...There was a smile beforehand that had slowly slipped into lines of worry pulling across her face,
I'm sorry if I did... But thank you for coming, regardless.Dal bowed her head, sheepishly, to the Black Sun, offering her condolences.
Nóttin's call could be heard echoing through the Vale — he would join them soon. For now, it was just her and Sólúlfur. Lifting her head, now to meet her golden eyes, she hummed,
I was actually wondering if... You'd like to take a walk with me... and Nóttin, whenever he catches up.She was sure he'd find them with little effort. She shuffled a few pawsteps forward, heading for one of the inclining trails for the view that would await them. Dal couldn't deny that she wanted to see for herself how the snow looked from a good vantage point before her and Nóttin left for Northfall.
I know you care greatly for your brother, and... I want to let you know that I care greatly for him as well.She took a look over her shoulder, the afternoon sun casting over her, highlighting the pinkish tint to her cheeks. Dal had never spoken of her feelings for Nóttin outside of her sisters... And they were completely different — well, in their own ways. Yet, Sólúlfur was on her way to becoming family (in more ways than even Dal realized).
I find it hard to be without him for long... He's...It was hard for her to put into words, funnily enough for the mediator,
Like... Light. T-To me... For ages, I felt put away when my mother passed... I... Fell away from the world, strayed to the shadows for a long time... And then... He saw me...She could feel the embarrassment setting in — merely over the fact that she worried Sólúlfur may not understand what she felt, and look at her as the "weird sister".
Ahem... What I'm trying to say is... I love him... And I hope you're okay with that...She so desperately wanted her to be.
