Alise breathes a sigh of relief as she watches Raina with her daughter. Raina had carried Tara over to the fire and curled up with her in a large chair. Alise couldnt hear what was said, but Tara slowly relaxed and stopped screaming. Tears still slipped down her cheeks but not as furiously as before. Raina cuddled the little one and tried to explain, then show her how to block the worst of what she was sensing.
Stoney excuses himself and steps out of the room.. When he returns his face was grave, his thoughts blocked. He leans close to Alise and whispers, “Chaton, I have to go with Tori to the clearing. Ask Laila to watch the children and bring Raina to the manse. Star will be bringing her children here to Laila.”
Raina looked up and asks simply, “Tannr?”
Nodding Stoney tells her he will bring him to the Manse. “We will meet you there, it will be faster..”
In seconds they can hear the beating of his large wings as he and Tori take flight and speed away. Raina and Alise exchange a worried glance and begin to get ready. Raina takes a deep breath, preparing herself for the worst and Alise explains to Laila and the children.
Tara looks stricken at the thought of her parents leaving her behind to go to Tannr. Tears fill her eyes again and her gaze moves from her mother to Raina, begging not to be left behind. ...Please maman...
Raina can see that her and Tomas are 'speaking'. Suddenly Tomas wrinkles his brow and shoots up the stairs, wings open wide.
He returns moments later carrying Taras doll, a small bundle and her scarf. “Take her maman. I help Lala...”
