If the world was to be right again, and if her chest was to feel as it once had Alder would have to return. The fever was touching her thoughts enough to make her believe that was the only answer, and though she saw and spoke to Cambria she could not give her full attention to the female as Anu normally would. She lay her head down once again, the pain blossoming in her chest a she did so before subsiding to an ache. The healer was worried, but Anu could not think of anything to worry about other then the departure of her meekest son. Again she had lost a boy to the Cours pack, again she felt the same pain that she had when Haven had left. Anu should have kept Alder home, why had she sent him away?
Cambria returned, and Anu only raised her crown slightly to watch the healer work. She spoke, and Anu didn't know what she was making such a fuss over. Tea? Anu could drink teas until the end of time, but it would not make Alder return, it would not heal the others that were hurting in the packlands. It would solve nothing. Even when she saw the face of the dark brown woman, looking to the concerned sea foam green eyes she could not find the normal appreciation that she would have felt if her fever had not boiled her thoughts.
It won't bring him back. The woman said, softly. She could not feel the appreciation that she normally would, nor could she get her mind to move from this one topic. She was not well, and so her words were not proper either.
