She smiled at her daughter as she cleared the distance between them by crossing the long empty street and stepping up onto the sidewalk. She was slightly surprised to realize that her daughter was now taller than her, though she always had carried on after her father.. she should have seen it coming but a mother was always the last to know. The words that her babe spoke of made Iskata smile, she could tell there were things on the girl's mind but she just shook her head, the twin pumpkin spots on her brow quirked in question as she commented. "I've noticed, fall seems to be short this year.." The season was alreadu upon them and already it appeared that the bitter winter winds were threatening to blow. She only hoped that the threats would be just that.. a lot of wind.
Iskata's palm pressed against the glass as she peered inside quietly, giving Ember a moment or two to gather herself as the elder woman looked into the store before them. She hadn't worn human clothing for a while, not since she'd been a member of Storm and before the children were born. She smiled slightly at the memory as her eyes flickered back to her baby. "How's Esper Hollow?" she asked quietly, wishing for a moment that her children weren't scattered so to the winds.. but knowing that they had their own lives to live as she had her own pack to care and love.. sortof her empty nest syndrome.. the pack had become her children.. but perhaps soon the nest wouldn't be empty anymore.
