Time is a cruel mistress. Half a moon she has been a widow; half a moon her kits have grown, eyes now open and steps attempted. Reality is sinking in that soon enough her children will be as independent as Iciclefang’s - exploring outside of the nursery, getting small injuries, talking and talking back.
Will her fragile heart survive such a stage?
“Is it hard letting them go? Letting them grow up?”
It’s a rare moment afforded to the two queens, where neither sets of kits are in need of maternal attention for the time being. Robinheart shuffles somewhat near the older queen, respectful of space but close enough to have a conversation. “You seem to… handle it well. I don’t know if I will when that time comes.”
