The pygmy woman had returned to the clan and yet her world had become quieter than ever. She had heard word of what had happened to Halo and while she felt privately that what goes around comes around all she could think of was the blind woman from her own past who was now merely a ghost. She had given her a name, given her scars to remember..but in a way she also had given her the will to survive far beyond what any other in her position would have been graced with. In that she knew at least in some way she didnot wish the ill that Halo had received upon the woman.
She sat upon the lowest branch of a massive oak while Timori hunted with Sup Sup in the field for mice and small fowl. She knew soon he would be considered old enough to go out into the clan lands by himself but Halo's own tragic events showed her that even the lands were not safe for their own young. She hated to think what would have happened if it had been one of Halo's own children or even Timori who had been caught among the enemy. She closed her eyes, shuddering at the idea before she opened those lilac grey orbs and stared into the distance at nothing and everything at once.
She hadn't really crossed lines with Helotes, the woman was still unsure of what lay between them. She was prickly and distant, afraid that he had in someway got what he wanted from her. She knew in a sense she was a rarity, a freak, but she wasn't sure if Helotes would boast of such things.. obviously it had got back to their leader about Halo so some male cometary had taken place there. Ezekiel had wanted her to find out where his loyalties lay, that had been one of the two assignments that she'd set upon the last moon.. and now if his heart was really in the right place and he did love her she knew there was only one way she would give herself to him and only him..and it would prove all in the end.
The mellow sunlight shimmered across her brown streaked hair as she sighed and turned her gaze towards the two creatures in the field, warring at who could bring in the most kills. With the noise they made she knew it was all for show but she couldn't help but smile a little.
