Aurthur had not been home for two days, but the little blue did not worry. Suzie had told her he probably wanted to surprise her, and so he'd gone off exploring for more wild flowers they could plant in the gardens.

Waking on third day, she'd peek at her bedside. Still no Aurthur, but the bond they shared remained strong. Slipping from their chamber, she would help her sister with breakfast, making sure the hatchlings and fledglings, the children and animals all had something to eat.

Stormy had even convinced her to eat more than she normally would, reminding her of the chores that needed to be done.

Solaria and Tempest both watched from respective perches as the younger dragonlings crept out into the sunshine. It was the first Spring for a few, and soon a pair were tumbling with squeaks and giggles, Running into their mother's leg as she was tending the gardens. A soft chuckle and a nuzzle to the pair as they soon ventured back to their siblings, all within viewing distance.

Two stone sentinals stood with wings outspread. Eyes forever open. A tribute to Firenze, and Shadowcatch. Fallen, but never forgotten.

One day, then two went by, though still there were no worries from the little blue. She'd been kept busy helping her sister Stormy with the young and the gardens, tending the flocks and the herds.

And while she napped, she was oblivious to the spell her dark sister was weaving. Stormy wanted nothing more to protect her sister from any type of pain.

The black had watched and as days went by, with no sign of Aurthur, she knew in her mind, that he'd not be returning.

As her sister slept, Storm had eased over, gently stroking the little blue's head, whispering a sealing spell, the bond between the pair would never be severed, though the magic would let it close, sealing away the memories for another time.

It was the lair that needed her focus now.

She had seen in the past, the pain her little sister had gone through, and she would not let it happen again.

A tender smile as a black forepaw stroked her napping blue sister. Icer had earned such a rest. Once the bond had sealed,she'd breathe a sigh of relief. Knowing that it had to be done. Not only would it protect her sister, but elsewhere, somewhere, it would protect the mind of her missing mate.

Her sister had been tending her for days...Now it was time to return the favor.

Slipping carefully into her dark sister's chamber, she would leave an offering of meat and fruit for Stormy. Ice blue eyes watching over the black dragon's sleeping form.

She knew not to wake the grump, but a smile formed upon her snout. Something not seen for a few days.

Slipping back out into the twisting hallways, she would resume checking up on the little ones. Making sure each had enough food, before feeding herself.
