Ariana smiled with a mouth full of food towards Fiona and giggled, shaking her head slightly before wiping her mouth with the back of her sleeve. “So yummy, want more!” she said enthusiastically before she stole some food off of Sanas plate and gobbled it down greedily. Sana shook her head some and pushed another piece of food over to the edge of the plate, readying it for the little one just in case she wanted to snatch another bite. Sana placed her fork down, having eaten all that she could stomach for the time being. She had been feeling off since yesterday evening after the last fight but chalked it up to stress and casting for the first time. She figured she would just have to get accustomed to the feeling. 

	“Yup yup, so yummy!” Ariana replied to Tobias as he spoke to her before she picked up a large sweet roll and took a bite, the icing dribbling down the side of her face as she pulled the remainder of the roll away from herself and placed it back on the plate. Sana rolled her eyes slightly as she dipped her napkin into her glass of water and proceeded to try to clean the little ones mouth up before even more spilt onto her outfit. 

	“So, Ariana,” Sana said with a soft voice. “Derrix there asked you last night how old are you, do you know?” Sana inquired, wanting to figure out more about the child before they left. Ariana nodded and held up her hand, counting off on her fingers as she did. 

	“One, two, three, four,” she said before stopping. “Four! Almost five!” she exclaimed proudly as she held her fingers out to show everyone. 

	“Okay, big girl then. When do you turn five?” Sana asked, wondering if the child would know.

	“Snow time,” Ariana said as she bounced slightly in her chair. Sana taking that to mean winter and figured that was as good as they were going to get when it came to her age. 

	“Do you know your parents name?” Sana asked as she sat there, reaching over to tuck Arianas hair behind her ear. 

	“Mama and papa,” Ariana said before snatching a strawberry off Sanas plate and popping it into her mouth. Sana pursed her lips slightly, that answer wasn’t much help but could she really expect much more from someone so young? Thinking for a moment she tilted her head to the side. 

	“Do you know your family name?” Sana asked but really wasn’t expecting an answer. Ariana grinned and held her hands up, bending her fingers like claws.

	“Rawr!” Ariana exclaimed, Sana sighed and reached out, taking her hands. 

	“Ariana, not time to play like you are a cat sweetie,” Sana said and Ariana shook her head.

	“Yes! Rawr! Ariana Rawr! Like big family cat!” she exclaimed once again and held her hands back up. Sana froze in her place like she had seen a ghost as her hand dropped from trying to get Ariana to stop. She swallowed hard and rested her elbow on the table, her forehead rested in the palm of her hand. Taking a deep and slow breath she looked back over towards Ariana after glancing around for a moment. 

	“Ariana,” Sana said in a soft voice that was shaking slightly. “Do you mean the big black cat?”

	“Yup yup, moves at night and pounces! Rawr!” she said trying to get Sana to play with her. Sana nodded slowly and held her hand out to the little one, mimicking her claws. 

	“Yes little one. Rawr like the panther, move through the night,” Sana sung in a low voice. 

	“Pounce and be gone by daylight!” Ariana sung excitedly. 

	“We’re the Rawn that walk through shadows of night,” the sung together. 

	“You know the song!” Ariana cheered before wrapping her arms around Sana, resting her head on the archers shoulder. Sana held the little one but the look on her face was that of being completely stunned. 

	“Yes little one, I know the song,” Sana forced out, her voice cracking some.
