Her thoughts drifted back to that dreadful day of when Toric had lost the kind and gentle collie that he was, turning into a monster and hurting their children. It had been such a perfect day until then. Redd was sitting with her children, catching up on their lives because she hadn't seen them in a few days. And then ... it had been so horrible. Toric had come out of nowhere and hit Tannin first, the strongest and the oldest of all of their children.

Almost everything after that was a complete blur, all except staring into her son's lifeless eyes and Sirius trying to comfort her. Then she was here, so many years ago, digging a seperate grave for each of her children. The sound of the dog's voice brought her back to earth.

"I loved him..." She spoke softly. "I couldn't bear the thought of living without him and I was willing to risk him turning against me again to be with him." Redd shook her head slowly. "But that's what he's doing now. That's what it feels like. His brother hurt my children, hurt him. And Toric is wanting to bring him back to life just so he can cause more destruction." At least, that was what Redd thought would happen. She had tried to talk Lestat back onto the sane side before, but he tricked her. He made her believe that he was doing better for a brief moment and then tried to hurt her.

She was afraid. That was the main thing. The wolfess who was a rank, who a lot spoke of how brave she was was afraid that her heart would get broken again. When Toric lost his mind-which was always what Redd thought happened-it shattered her heart to pieces. And since then there had always been that fear that something would smash what she had managed to put back together.

"From an outsider's perspective, I must look like a fool. To be so glad to see Toric when he's back from his wanderings. But I do, I am."
