Every Second of the Night I Live Another Life
Svalin moved quietly and cautiously through the skeletal trees. Soggy leaves barely moved under her feet and it helped silence her footsteps. Her sword was drawn and ready, but she couldn't see anything with this fog all around. Shadowy shapes moved through the fog, but they never drew close enough to see if they were friend or foe.

Svalin had charged after a few, but she never reached them.

Movement to the right caught her eye and she turned quickly. The dark shape lingered for a moment and retreated into the fog. Svalin gave chase. Her movements were slow and awkward due to the pregnancy and she couldn't move quick enough to catch the shadowy figures.

She growled in frustration and received an agreeing kick from the child inside of her.

The fog swirled and moved around her as watched for any shadows to appear.

	"Yeah. That sounds like plan." Vernique shrinks down just a little, the better to fit, but still big enough to provide a noticeable presence. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Thank thee," Svalin said as she settled in. There was a lot on her mind, but her wife's presence helped calm it somewhat. "I doth appreciate it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
