In one of the many tents in the Vale of Mist that hundreds of refugees had come to call home in the days since Owain Lothian's massacre, Milo's wife Juni knelt on the ground beside Old Nan. Juni's rich brown fur had lost its shine but she still did everything she could to look after herself and her husband's ailing mother as well.
While their possessions were meager, Juni did her best to keep the small tent tidy, washing blankets and clothing, cleaning up after meals, and turning small pieces of wood into everyday items they'd left behind in the hurry to leave.
At least half of it was simply to help her stay busy in these idle days while they waited to find out what the rulers of the Vale of Mists intended to do with them. The important thing was that she stayed close to her mother-in-law while Milo was away.
