The first litter had been born, and were her brother’s no less! She hoped whatever hole he had put himself into that it would all be okay. She hadn’t said anything to anyone else. She would leave that up to him to announce the births to others, but she did at least hope that he would tell their father soon. He needed some more happy things in his life and Zeltzin was suspecting he was declining faster than he let on. She tried to let that thought go. Still the calls for help were what was putting her on the move now. She knew this spring would be busy, and honestly all the work was doing very well to help her mentality. For the first time she was feeling more like her old self excited to get down in the den’s examine the children and their mothers.

She started running a bit faster after she heard Jinan’s call after Paisley’s. Their den was a bit out there, bucolic compared to the central area of the pack, though many did seem to prefer solitude at night. Still, she quickly found her way there and she didn’t wait to be welcomed. There was more blood this time. More than there had been at Tuari’s at least. The pups at her stomach all seemed well for the time being. She left them to their nursing, moving to Paisley. ”You have some bad tearing, but you’ll be okay. Take this, it will help a lot with your pain.” She said softly, pushing some valerian root towards her maw. ”It’s very bitter, but it will help.” She assured the wolfess, before giving an equally reassuring look to the deaf male laying before her and encompassing the pups. He didn’t need to move to allow her work, though this next part was always a little awkward.

”I am going to press on this, it will hurt, but you should feel some pretty quick relief.” She took her paw dipping it into the aloe before spreading it as gently as she could over the tear. Time would allow it to patch itself together. Zeltzin had seen worse in her life, but she knew it must have been painful. As big as the largest child was, and as small as Paisley was, Zeltzin felt a bit of sympathy pain for the woman. Something similar had happened with birthing Shem, but Zeltzin still was bigger than Paisley and Shem and that boy looked very similar in size. It must have been very hard on her. ”They all sound super healthy.” She comments pulling away before tucking some aloe and breaking some roots up and placing both to the side of her den.

”If you feel you need it I have broken up the roots to the right size you should take. If one isn’t enough take two chunks. If that’s not enough tell me next time I check in on you and I will get poppy seeds. If your mate can and you feel discomfort sooner than I return have him clean his paw off then apply the aloe.” She says though really she knows the tiny female will be fine. Zeltzin waits to make sure there was nothing else they needed of her before she left them to enjoy their family together.
