Fendros reached his hand over to Ahnasha's shoulder as her emotions rose. He held off on repeating what he had said before going to meet them; it appeared that it was becoming apparent to Ahnasha anyway. For a while, he just stayed silently with her for her comfort.

After about a minute, Rhazii's eye and hand peeked around the doorframe of the cabin. His small voice asked, "Mama, are you okay?"

Looking around to him, Fendros smiled and beckoned for Rhazii to approach. "Come here," Fendros said in a low voice, "Give your mother a hug."

Rhazii complied, climbing up onto the bed and crawling over to Ahnasha to embrace her.
