"The killings?"
"Yeah, Talia, the killings." I was trying not to let the sheltering instinct overcome me here. I am Talia's mother. I was supposed to protect her and keep her safe. Letting her do this job for me though, that wasn't protecting her. This was exposing her to the cruelty of the world.
"What do you need, Mom? How can I help?"
"Well, turn around and see what is behind you." It was time for her to see the dead bodies. It was time for her to see what had happened to the men that had died in this pack.
"I already saw the bodies, Mom. I saw them the moment that I came through the door. I did a quick peripheral scan as well as cast my magic out to check for people and things that were in the room." She truly was amazing.
