My body collapsed, held only by the force of the arm holding onto my torso. Hesitantly I opened my eyes and woke to the sight of warmth and worry. Of clear concern... for me and she's there. Oh- Lily is there!
Her arms support me, just as they hold me.
I smile. Bright and shining. My tail wraps around her waist - for support, that's the reason. And I look around. Seeing if, maybe, I could recognize any of these buildings. And I do.
"We're..."
Lily gives me a suffering smile.
"Yeah."
"But why? We're... we're not safe yet?"
I recognize them. I really- really do.
And I don't want my property, my people, my pseudo-city. I don't want them to know where they are.
But- well- If I look hard enough. And I do. I can guarantee that we will find a hole made by one of my burrowers. Mhm... I squint. That isn't that bad of an idea.
