(With life comes death. Sansa knows this lesson intimately, but the mourning is never easier to bear.)

Some would think me ridiculous. (She is definitely teary-eyed and her complexion is a little blotchy. No one looks good crying, okay.) I have said farewell to one of my sheep. She was sweet and I think she was old when we met.

(Her pygmy goat is resting in her lap, trying to be a comfort.)

If...someone could help me move her? I know the wolves would be appreciative of the gift.

i had never thought of it in that way
i met mother cat while answering my first prayer and she chose to come home with us
perhaps that was her deciding to put trust in us
she hasnt left yet so i suppose we earned it

You are blessed to have her. People can lie and use one another, but animals are pure in their intentions. They choose to be with us because it is their true desire.

I am happy you have the opportunity. I had a Direwolf once, but that was years ago.

a direwolf??
what is a direwolf like
is it very different from a not dire wolf

They are much larger wolves, essentially. My Lady was very gentle, but not all Direwolves have that sort of nature. They can be very ferocious.

i see
i would have never expected any kind of wolf to make a companion
but now that i think of it dogs are similar to wolves are they not

My family has a bond with Direwolves. We thought them extinct until my father and brothers found pups in the forest.
