Her smile strained a little.
Again, into the play bow, this time with a bark,
Very nice indeed!
Her head tilted.
Oh! That! Well... I'm not so far. I have a den set up and everything, and the Druids have the best healers! Plus, my mom, she went into battle pregnant. And even got wounded in the fighting, then had me the night of the victory! If she can do that then I think I'll be ok.Mostly, she tried not to think too much about her condition. It still didn't quite feel real.
That's one of my favorite stories!
And well, birds are sacred to Mum's people! I don't know why the loner helped her, though.Liss paused for a moment to think.
Maybe they were just nice? If someone asked you to help, wouldn't you? I would.Liss nodded.
I think that must be it. Or maybe they thought she was pretty, and wanted to impress her!A snicker.
The Anvil was a place back home, in the Vale —For a moment, something nearly wistful possessed her voice.
It was a big... empty kind of place, No water, got real hot. You had to cross it to get... To get...Her mind itched.
Somewhere else. But it kept our border safe. Just about anyone who crossed it to find us was Vandr.
Again, into the play bow, this time with a bark,
A big scary outsider not to be trusted! But I always liked them. My family was way too worried about strangers. I guess that's fair, I mean, the Vale got invaded once. They tried to kill my Papa. But there were also a lot of nice loners out there! I mean, just look at you!
Very nice indeed!
Her head tilted.
So.. when you say men named you Coyote? You mean like... your father?Some wolves in Mythris talked this way. Woman, not she-wolf. Liss hadn't paid it any particular mind, she figured it was just a peculiarity of language.
My Mum named me, Elisabet! But I like Liss better. You know, if you don't want to be Coyote,she deepened her voice around the word again, amused,
You could always pick something else! Like Coy... though that makes you sound bashful. Or... Ote. Oh-tee? Hmm... You'd have to explain it all the time I bet. Maybe Errol!
