Her recent thoughts were split between Leonidas and the yearling she'd saved. With her weakened brother, the fallen Lion, there was little room for anything else. Only it didn't matter if her whole mind was consumed by Leonidas and she gave him his undivided attention, her brother wasn't recovering. The herbalist had done her best but no one could force the water down his throat and chew the food for him. He was unresponsive in the ways she needed him to be. What terrified her the most was that he reminded Lyall of their mother, towards her end.
But Leonidas was young; he was not Celeste. He had his family, he had her. And she had him. He was the Lion and she was the Wolf, that was how it was meant to go. But then he'd disappeared, clawed his sight away and she didn't know why. Lyall had been so foolish to think he was okay. Whenever she closed her eyes, they burned behind her lids and she could feel the blood he must have felt, hot on her cheeks like tears. Lyall would blink the feeling away.
If she could do nothing immediately for Leonidas, Lyall would turn to someone she could help. The cadet visited the Boxer female in her recovery and repeatedly promised they would go somewhere when she was up to it. After her ordeal, Lyall wanted to keep a close eye on the girl. Though she'd faced arguably worse in her childhood, suffering was suffering and the Wolfhound knew how she must have felt. Once the wounds had sealed on her face, with whatever unknown remedies Motley had at her disposal, Lyall had come just as she promised.
Motley wasn't in her room, but she found the young Boxer who was recovering inside. The beige giant stood in the doorway, lowering her head in a cordial greeting.
"Are you ready to go?"
