Fell
▻ Sarama | Shvana ◅
She is positively trembling by the end, foamed and lathered in sweat and chilled by the sudden wetness in even the summer of the Bay. This is not, she suddenly remembers, the Dunes. She would not remain warm until she stepped into sun-warmed oasis waters, truly.
She ends her race with a shake before the movements reveal that Fell is toddling after her - at long last. It was not as though she had been terribly hospitable after the loss of their daughter, but she is a little flustered that he had not come to check on her. She had always known she was the least of his wives, barely wanted other than to have no losses when her father had found his first love amongst his women. She had known that her times with him were fleeting at best and her nature too fickle and weak to undermine what he had with Kohelet.
But he had seemed to love her in some small way - gifting her two daughters and allowing her to raise them, not Kohelet who deserved the right to raise all children as if they were her own. He had seemed, but still she had mourned alone, not even given the chance to chase out his well meaning coddling. Nothing. Not a whisper.
It means when she spots him, suddenly erect and perked with her haloed ears, her ears scoop back and hook accidentally into her mane. She sees his chest biting, she sees the dull tarnished gold in his eyes and it frustrates her more. He had mourned so much, but so had she. He had been through many losses in a short time, but why was Kohelet able to drag him into the depths of the Underworld?
It was the first selfish, competitive, irate thought she had ever truly owned for herself. "It’s been three months." She says with a tone that fought to stay meek when it was anything but mild. "I miss her." she says at last, losing a little steam with that thought and her risen flames banked by the myriad of harshities in her new world view..
