Kamaria
I would rather stay here
Where the moon, it glows
Where the moon, it glows
Kamaria listens to her mother's words, hanging onto each and every one of them. Her fingers absent-mindedly fasten around the fabric of her dress, kneading and twisting it in a nervous tic as she listens. Only the idle stroking of her mother's hand is enough to keep her from getting truly upset, and she finds herself leaning into Safrin's shoulder.
She's disappointed. Life had seemed so hopeful and the world so big, so wide and open. Now, it's been corrupted by something dark and arcane. The world is still big, but the world she can roam has been narrowed substantially. Tears form in her eyes and she fights to hold them back, her lips quivering with the attempt as Safrin presses a gentle kiss to her forehead.
"But..." her eyes search her mother's face for another way, "Nate would never hurt me - or Daddy. He's a part of our family. Can't you protect us from the Voice?" She glances at Sunjata, too, and she's hoping one of her parents will say yes - so that they don't have to shut Nate out of their lives. Her heart wrenches just at the thought of that.

Soaring doves and falling crows
Laughter is the only sound here
