For @Riannon, all other tags are for awareness

---

One day, she had been fine — and another, her world had becoming consumed by nausea and fatigue. She had contributed her overt need for sleep to her recent venture to the north, but now significant time had passed, and it could not longer be used as a viable excuse, not when paired with a myriad of other symptoms. She ached. She was irritable; but beneath this prickly exterior, the new mother bloomed and blushed.

Even before she eked a word of this denouement to @Tiberius, Olive knew there was another conversation that needed to be had — one that, if Olive could have avoided it, she likely would have. She had asked the Gods to enervate her with understanding, and to make known what they kept hidden within their prophet Riannon. Their every supernal hand, pointed consistently towards Tiberius.

In her musing about this topic, Olive found herself preoccupied with the matter of Riannon understanding her perspective (one which Olive barely understood herself with logos, only with pathos), or if she might perhaps view this as a failure, or worse yet, a sloughing of what Frostchant used to be, but Evenrise no longer was. In some small way, all of these things were as true as they were false, and in the end, Olive knew she could not delay her duty to her sky-sister any longer, lest another wave of nausea overtake her. Maybe she might even be able to intercept @benry and pander on to him about the oh-so-exciting future. She deeply desired to celebrate this with her two closest friends,

Why did that feel like such a faraway possibility?

Olive wove her way to Cloudrest and paused at the borders, almost intending to howl. The waifish woman paused, sniffed at the scents to ascertain such biological information of the pack, then realized — this was still her home, was it not, though she had been living betwixt two worlds? Nodding assuredly to herself, Olive cautiously drifted across Evenrise's threshold as she had done many times before, and begun to seek out where she suspected the Sotaherra to be with her clutch of growing pups.
