Her sister spoke back to her in a slurred voice, agreeing that she was alive and Lucia took that as a good sign. At least she was able to understand what she was saying and answer back, right? Lucia nodded. "That's right." Though her expression sobered as Myrria coughed up more water, her eyes softening in worry. Did she need to do anything else? What do you do for a wolf that was drowning? She'd never had to deal with this before. When she asked Myrria if she was okay, Myrria told her not to worry but her next words confused Lucia. What did she mean, she hadn't hurt anyone? Lucia tilted her head, about to ask but then she shook her own head. Her sister must have some muddled thoughts after drowning or something. She wasn't making any sense. Instead she just smiled softly and shook her head. "Of course not. You wouldn't hurt anyone." She agreed, hoping to further soothe her sister.

As Myrria laid back down, Lucia stepped closer to her, her ears still back in concern as she shifted her weight, unsure of what to do next. But when Myrria looked back up toward the water, there were tears in her eyes and Lucia inhaled sharply, her gaze widening in surprise to see Myrria so emotional. Myrria wouldn't even look at her and that really tore at her heart. She shook her head, making a "shhh" noise to comfort her sibling as she went to her without hesitation this time, curling her body against Myrria's as she laid down beside her. "You can't repress the feelings, Myrria. You have to face them or they won't go away." She spoke softly, burrowing her nose in Myrria's fur, hoping to comfort her with touch and talking. Myrria started mumbling then and it was hard to understand her but Lucia pricked her ears and leaned toward her, wanting to help.

She heard something about Myrria being good and that she didn't want to hurt anymore. As the tears started leaking down her cheeks, Lucia whimpered and leaned in to try to lick them away from her cheeks. "You don't have to, Myrria. I'm your sister and you can tell me anything. You ARE good." She felt so helpless and she hated it.
