More foreign words came forth and Cercelee picked out her own name and what she guessed to be the child’s. Cercelee furrowed her brows and frowned, not at the girl, but in general. It would be hard to communicate this way. Yet her moment of unhappiness did not last long, the girl blurted out a few words in English and Cercelee smiled in relief. Hello there, Catharsis. Cercelee sounded calm, cheerful even, as if this were all so very ordinary. She felt that her being upset would only upset the pup further, and the others when they awoke. They would have a hard enough time adjusting.
Anka de Sadira. Cercelee scanned her memory and came up with a cousin, long since gone from these lands, and Cercelee nodded. What had Cer said to make Anka trust her so? Or maybe Anka didn’t trust her at all, maybe Anka was wanted somewhere, anywhere, to drop the children at. Even without reading the note fully, the white lady knew Anka wouldn’t be returning, not anytime soon. No, I did not see your mother, but she is not here. She paused, how could she say for sure if she was coming back or not? Dodging Cercelee tried to change the subject. Perhaps we should take your brothers and sisters inside, it’s warmer there. Better for sleeping. What would Slay say?
