"Mandalocks … I … I know we’ve just met. And I don’t want to overstep my bounds, but … is there anything I can do for you?” The question surprises her, new emotion in her eye as she looks up at the spotted man. Her father; so unlike her in appearance but still.. Her father and that was all she had anymore.. Sunfall had receded into hiding within the shadowy edges of Sylva, near the ever-present fog, with three of her four children. Her first son stayed, choosing his father over his mother and siblings.
How long had it been since she saw her sister Sunfall? At least two seasons.. She wondered how her and her children had fared the winter's middle and whether they would return from their hiding when the snow melted in early spring. She pulled herself out of her thoughts, speaking softly.
"Be there for me." She says, starting to stand again. Eyes wet but open. She stood, shaking slightly from the exhaustion of her grieving, leaning against him. "Be there as my father." She says. She knows it is much to ask; but it is all Mandalocks asks him to do for her. Be there.
