As far as I can see
There is nothing left of me
All my time in hell was spent with you
Mother. Mother. Mother. The word echoed within her mind, it radiated within her chest, and it clung tightly to her side, wrapped within the warmth of her curled locks. The female shifted, nuzzling the sleeping boy just barely enough that he rolled away from her touch. The winter had passed and spring had sprung, her son was not as small as he once was and she found that nothing had been any easier.
How strange it felt to be just as clueless as the day she had adopted him, wishing nothing more than to be a good mother to the boy. Against her side was another. The moon-touched knight, she turned her head slightly to glimpse at him as he slept peacefully and soundlessly.
The winter had been a harsh one, the trio hardly moved since, waiting for the weather to clear. Though the Apostle had a sinking feeling that them finding a new home was a dream turned sour. Borogrove was all she and the boy had ever known. Templar had come from a rich history with roots that extended far and wide. They'd know the sting of loss, Cain, their boy... No, her boy, had felt it much too early.
She had cradled him so much during the the winter, held him closer and tighter as the cold months dragged on. He would be loved, Filianore would make sure of that. The bright beams of the early morning sun cut through the rocky hollow of their den, pale gaze would look to the bright morning outside. The blades of grass illuminated by the dazzling rays, the chirping of birds and the welcoming of warmth. She'd slowly rise, though her legs begged her to lay back down and rest, she'd gently brush a paw over the boy and nuzzle at the Knight who only grumbled softly in his sleep.
The wolfdog staggered out of the den, squinting as the sun blared it's bright beams against her, she walked a little ways before coming to rest in the grass. The dew still collecting on the blades and there was a bit of a fog that crested over the lower areas of the field she had found. A figure in the distance caught her eye and she tilted her head, thinking at first that it might be best to leave them be, but her curiosity got the better of her. A tired smile pulled at her lips as she walked closer, a coat of browns and greys. "
Good morning, I'm sorry to bother you. I just- I saw you sitting alone and thought you'd like some company." She said craning her neck out slightly as her collar caught a bit of sun, the golden thread glinting in the light. "
I'm Filianore." Over head clouds could be seen, no doubt another spring downfall would be in store.
