Zeltzin smiled when the two younger wolves bid their farewells. Her daughter was so polite and reminded her more often of her father than herself in that regard. Zeltzin was far more rebellious at that age. She regretted it now, but watching Midna having been like her it felt right in a way now. She did wish though she just would have learned healing form her mother from the start. Perhaps then she would have been skilled enough to save Rhae. Nothing could help that fem though and inside Zeltzin knew it but still she felt an edge of guilt. She had to let it go though and that was why she was trying to become even better now. For Rhae and her Mother. It would just take time for her to cope with those few things as well. Slowly she was getting over it with the more she learned about healing. The more she learned the more she felt better about her choices and decisions and put to rest what had happened in the past.

She lead him towards the grave sites. The small valley to which Taviora held. Many flowers adorned the area in Spring and Fall but right now it was growing a bit more desolate with the coming winter. Still it was one of the most open areas in all of Taviora. She glanced at her mother’s grave for a moment before making sure Hal found his way to his parents graves. She wanted to make sure he had his time his moment. Sitting a small distance away hearing him whine and sure, even from a distance, he was probably crying. She felt so bad for him, her heart going out to the small child that had his parents ripped away from him. She wasn’t sure how he survived or where he had gone, but he was okay and alive.

She turned then when she heard him speak softly with a resolution in his voice that caused a smile to touch her maw. She watched him, tail giving a few sad waves until he called up to the heavens. She gave him a few seconds to let his own voice fill the air before her own added to the mix. In the distance of the lands she thought she could hear Zelda’s and perhaps a few other wolves as well mixing their tones into Halcyon’s own. Zeltzin was sure that he was coming out of this with a new resolution in mind for himself and for the future. She hoped that he wouldn’t get himself into too much trouble and hoped that there would be no danger for him. That was too much to ask of the child though, just as it was for Lucero and she knew it inside.

Once the song ended he walked towards her and she stood up as well. She gave a sad smile at his thanks. ”Don’t thank us Halcyon. We are happy to give your parents a place to rest and join the world once again. Though I know their spirits are constantly among us, you even, for those who pass don’t ever truly leave us.” She says dipping her head slightly to the boy as well as he bowed. Her tail gave a few waves, she saw something in his eyes that wasn’t there before and she was happy for that. However she was brought to a pause when he asked of the other grave a frown touching her muzzle before the smile returned once again.

”That is my Mother, Moth.” She says simply smiling as she gazed over at her grave that was not all that far from Iblis and Rhae’s own. She wasn’t willing to tell Halcyon more of it. She had a lot of time to cope and come to terms with her own Mother’s death long before it finally came. It still left a hole inside of her ad she missed her mother and the guidance she gave all the time but she was an adult and mother herself and she had to walk on her own two paws from here on out with her spirit inside of her. She was going to make her mother proud, become Shaman of Taviora if she could. And Teaching Halcyon was just one more step to achieving her goal of taking the place of her mother.

”Well if you are ready Halcyon. Let us go to the den where I keep all my supplies.” She started walking across the valley then, tail bobbing lightly behind her as she lead the way. Zeltzin recalled a few seasons back teaching Eden, of all wolves, the basics of healing as well. It was funny thinking of teaching a true adult to heal but it was very informational and you often learned a lot about someone when you taught them. Their strengths, weaknesses, and patience. She was certain she would learn just as much from Halcyon too during this training session.
