Here's a Spanish for you. Kinda left it open, since Salvia is moving around; Tla burned something, so the area of the Commons that she's sitting in reeks. Also, please ignore my awful translations.

She'd found another sacrifice. Skinning the creatures, leaving bloodied corpses to burn on small pyres, the coyote tainted golden fur a sick orange in the name of her Sun. Momoztli, a god who served her well in the past. Oh yes, He had served her so very well. A vague sneer crossed petite Eternian muzzle. The serpentine scarifications adoring her small body glittered ever so slightly in the light of the caves. The ritual itself was not over; she had not offered her prayers to the fiery deity followed by her homeland. It had become difficult to do such a thing.

"Para el Sol," she began, her native tongue flowing far more easily than the more commonly spoken English found amongst the caverns of Anathema. It was simply easier to talk in Spanish; she hated the difficulty that socializing presented. To finish her short offering, more words flowered forth, in the same lilt as the previous set. "Y puede que nos traiga la paz en las próximas contiendas."

She didn't speak for her new family. Tlantli spoke for the brothers lost in the snow, for the one she hoped would find his way back to her. For Citlali. Blood held thicker, though she supposed she shared blood with Naniko now as well. But Momoztli didn't protect the wolves. A sigh escaped her. Delicate hands gathered her materials as the pyre smoldered, smoke billowing up in small plumes. Perhaps He wouldn't notice. The dirt kept them apart.
