Gjalda is still there, so pp him as much as you want.
Three slaves was not enough. To be fair, they had more than three, but Siv could not consider those who served a single master amongst them. Each wolf seemed to think their way of discipline and training was the best, and she supposed this was fair. It kept the other three open to those who might call upon them, and she suspected, in the days to come, that this would become more common. With so many children underfoot, there would be needs and demands for more—more eyes, more space, more things that needed done or watched or built.
She was busy overlooking a wound on Gjalda’s arm. It was minor, but he had expressed concern about it. Apparently, or so she gathered from the garbled mess of words he used, something had fallen on him while working on further expansion of the barn. Siv decided it was minor enough not to truly cause concern, but gave him a clean strip of cloth to wrap it up. He had been cautious about telling her about the pain, but she gave him something none the less. Once he had been bandaged and medicated, she turned to leave.
To her surprise, the doggish gypsy she knew only by sight and scent entered. Siv towered over her, but she towered over nearly every member of the Family. She smiled faintly and dropped her head to exchange the proper muzzle-to-muzzle greeting. “Isabella, isn’t it? What brings you here?”
