GAHRYE
Elia's beast landed, still on the furs, all four legs splayed, her hackles standing tall, hissing, her mouth open to show her fangs, and her tail lashing.
"Shit, Reth!" Aymora growled. "You couldn't stop pushing!"
"I wasn't pushing her."
"Clearly you were!"
Gahrye stared at Elia's beast and shook his head, praying she'd be able to come back, that she wouldn't be stuck again. But at least there were others here to help her now. At least… at least he wouldn't fail again.
He slumped and Elia's beast hissed again, leaping over Aymora to land between Gahrye and the others. He startled, but as soon as she landed, she whirled, backing up until her lashing tail was slapping his shins, and growling at Reth and Aymora.
Reth stared, wide eyed, then his brows pinched over his nose. "Is she… protecting you?" he asked, his voice gruff, but going high at the end.
