I knew the pain my desert brother felt, understood that anguish because I'd walked a similar path. There was a moment of guilt for not calling for him when she arrived at my border, nar, but there was also an unpredictable slice which was mildly jealous, and protective of the girl I'd looked after and watched at a distance for years. He was coming to take her away.

My crown dips into a nod, softy I reply, "Be easy she is here and safe," trying to be reassuring for his sake, though my gut was twisting with remorse, "I found her a few weeks ago, along the border. Weak and very nearly starved." torn that he'd come looking, regretful because I didn't know what else to say, "Africa was in no condition for travel, though she is on the mend and should be strong very soon." Frame turned away from him, expecting that the leathery fellow would follow without encouragement. Quietly I add, "This way, I'll lead ye to her."

Fina glared at him from my rear while Neve fluttered back and forth, enthralled by his wings and the lack of feathers. She chirped merrily, seeking attention and not understanding the sense of anxiety in the air nor the mix of emotions traveling through our bond from me. The short walk to yon caverns wouldn't be nearly long enough to come up with a solution that would solve both conflicting hearts. I settled for the short term solution and buried my ideals into a hole. What did it matter, I had no claim on yon girl anyways.
