Beatrix had tagged along because she had nothing better to do, and Loren had promised the respite of inside away from the yucky mud. That had been enough of a reason to venture out for her. Plus there was Astra who was very fun to play with when she wasn’t glued to Loren’s side. Which wasn’t often but she was willing to chance it. Jace held her hand and toddled along quietly, the now almost five year old quite steady on his feet. Still very introverted though. As Loren did whatever boring adult stuff he was doing, Beatrix and Jace poked around, simply being nosey.
That’s when she heard the familiar click of heels on the stone floor.
[say]”Mom!”[/say] Beatrix shouted happily, racing towards the door, Jace not far behind.
