backdated to the evening returning from the demonia incident.
The trip back had been silent. Which was more than what Elenora could have hoped for. Once they were set free, Elenora ran the way home with Thelma in her maw, tears flying across her cheeks as the wind blew in her face. When returning home, Elenora was silent, helping Thelma to bed. She stayed by her side until sleep took her. They would talk about it tomorrow, Elenora had promised. But for now, the child needed sleep. And once she was, Nora stepped outside of the den, far enough to call for @Kore, but close enough to where she could see if a little white and brown creature was sticking her head out.
She stood there, underneath the stars, with her head dropped like she'd lost a crown, stripped of her pride. The woman's shoulders remained slouched and her eyes pointed at the ground, feeling the weight of today unload upon her. All she wanted to do was cry — as if she hadn't done enough of it on the way home. Her legs hadn't stopped shaking, not even now. She till had to tell all of this to Kore, and that was the scariest part. She was so loving, sweet, and kind — and the thought of disappointing her resonated with how she'd also failed at being a mother. Maybe she wasn't meant for such tenderness and only for failure.
