The exhaustion would continue to ebb at her, but a smile still managed to find her features through it as he agreed to the name, informing her that a few of the kids and her mother-in-law lingered outside the den. “Let them see… but not for very long.” The reason obvious from the fatigue in her voice.
Nash would allow them in and she would shift gently to reveal the life at her belly, allowing the kids to see, along with Moonshadow just as she had the litter before. “Your have a baby sister.” She would introduce, even though Nash had already given them such information.
“I know you’ll both be amazing siblings to her, hmm? Helping us teach her how to hunt and fight and heal?” She would prompt to them. “And Moon… you’re an amazing grandmother… and I know you will be to her too.”

It would not be his inky father who appeared next but instead his tawny littermate - looking just as panicked as he felt. She quickly settled in besides him sandwiching him between her and their grandmother. Whines fell upon his fluffy audits before he added his own to the quiet symphony. Matos' coal nose nudged Magg's cream colored cheek in an attempt to provide them both the comfort they desperately sought. Grandma's voice was calming for the new yearling as she explained what was going on within the den. Still though, his anxiety and heartrate wouldn't ease until he saw his father.
Luckily they wouldn't have to wait much longer. Nash emerged from the earth, dark audits stood at attention as the news was delivered. A sister... The thought swirled a moment before settling, the feeling would come later. For now his dad allowed them to go in and see their mother as well as meet their baby sister for the first time. Unaware of uncustomary the allowance was. Slowly he rose, peeling himself out from between his family. Hesitantly the ebony Eastfall-Slayer boy wiggled his way into the birthing den. The scent of blood and afterbirth filled his nostrils, causing a small snort to come from them. "Hi mama" he whispered with lowered ears and wide gaze. His mother moved to reveal the very tiny dark bundle at her belly. Matos nodded quietly as Aquene stated how they'd be good siblings to Eclypse. Helping to teach her everything they had been taught. He would be more than happy to help with his newest sister but worry began to gnaw at him...would he be any good at it?
Not long after his mother spoke to them did he sense it was time to leave. She looked utterly exhausted, and honestly he was tired too. Coming down from the sudden adrenaline rush left the boy sleepy. Quietly he slipped out of the den and went to his father giving him a nudge to his chin. After the yearling settled in opposite to his father on the other side of the entrance with a little more clearance. His lanky yearling frame laid on the grass beneath him with his head settling upon his forelimbs. He would also sit there but would more likely fall asleep.

Exhaustion would begin to slowly chip away at her as they made their way into to meet the newest member of Sanguine Cove. She would offer them a tired but grateful smile for their appearance, her eyes constantly drifting down to the life that suckled at her belly, reliant on her for life and sustenance. It never quite got old, the feeling of first laying her eyes on her children… even though the pain of her firstborn being still, through the long labor that was Matos, Magg, and Monatalia… through it all, she relished in this moment.
Eventually, she would drift off to sleep, allowing them to remain keeping their eyes on the pup or to head about back to their chores or to spread the news. She had merely reached the point where she could not keep her eyes open any longer. She needed rest so her body could recover from all it had endured.
