Sunni after talking to Macki that night, felt a little better, but still not very well with her emotions. After Macki's story calmed her down, Sunni still kept a tight grip on the pillow she held to comfort her. Macki had asked Sunni before leaving for the night, if she would like to change for the night. Sunni shook her head 'no, not yet' and Macki left for the night. Sunni cried into her pillow and soon fell asleep. The voices were still there but quiet to her conscience now that she slept soundly.

Sunni woke up early that morning, not realizing she was still dressed as she was the night before. Sunni noticed that even as frilly as this outfit was, it didn't at all look slept in. As she sat up, Macki returned that morning; she seen her still in the outfit from the night before. Macki smiled "Would you like to change your clothes, Milady? Would you like to have a bath this morning too?" Sunni thought a while and wondered if a bath would help out how she felt; she was feeling better, but still not totally herself.

Buddi looked as his Mama Ursa held him; he was hurt and confused but still hoped that Ursa would forgive him for what he did and would understand why he was doing what he was doing. He was trying to stay a cub as long as he could, and wanted to stay young. Even Ursa could see the hurt in his eyes as she looked into his eyes as she picked him up and sat in a rocking chair in the room she was provided. She looked back on the previous few days and especially last night and reexamined each one of her actions from those days, that combined into the anger she had felt toward her cub last night at the celebrations and started to have feelings of regret and guilt.

Buddi held on to his Mama Ursa as she sat in the chair, as Gritti walked in. He could see Buddi was the glue that kept Ursa going strong. Even he could see that Buddi did not mean what he did at the celebrations. Gritti knew that this was frowned upon by Barbic traditions, but on this one night, after a battle and nearly losing both Buddi and almost losing his best friend and the glen cubs, even though traditionally they didn't celebrate victories, he figured after all they had been through, they could rejoice privately that they were all still alive and well.
