Naar said nothing else. Probably because there was nothing else to be said. Nakama and Gaddith were fine. They were happy. They might have the opportunity to meet again in the future. Her heart could be at ease knowing that and, the way the pride was now, the pair were probably fortunate in their leaving of this place.

As the bird took flight again, Naar watched the shape disappear until it was out of sight. Leaning against her mother, she gave a breathy little sigh and closed her eyes.

One day, they would meet again. Of that, she was certain.
