Feeling her mother's embrace, Aelia could feel herself relax, letting go of tension she didn't even know that she had. It had been a while since she had seen either of her mothers, and she worried for them deeply. She couldn't come to admit to even herself that one of the reasons she'd stowed away was because of the similarities between her and Cissa, physically. She sighed out against her mother's blonde fur, wondering if she thought the same of herself,
It's good to have you back.
The two fell back to their own selves and Aelia's lunar eyes met with her mother's enchanting amethyst ones; and she just so happened to catch the shift. The Augur seemed to stiffen as if imbued with the frigid cold of Northfall once more, and Aelia's hope seemed to fade. Whatever had happened North had not brought Narcissa back, nor neither of her mother's joy. The boy from the North had been a curse — or so a lot of them thought.
Aelia nodded at her response,
I imagined.She said, offering a small smile. The blonde girl's tail did two slow wags upon seeing her mother's sly smile coil at the edges of her lips.
That must be where I also get my hatred of the cold.The Daystar commented, feeling a warmth in her chest. At least not all of the Augur had been frozen over.
Things have been okay here...She thought to the past few days she had, Amaya's revelation and Amaris' confession,
Odd, but... When isn't that the case?She attempted to add some levity to their conversation; her rays of warmth trying to coerce Amaranth's iced interior to melt. She missed seeing her mother drag oddities throughout Elysium and be seen side-by-side with her counterpart. These days had lacked in those sights, those ebbing emotions that trickled down through all of Elysium... All echoing with the loss of one girl.
Amaranth
