[sings while San in her sleep]
In the moonlight / I felt your heart / Quiver like a bowstring's pulse / In the moon's mere light / You looked at me / Nobody knows your heart / When the sun has gone / I see you / Beautiful and haunting but cold / Like the blade of a knife so sharp, so sweet / Nobody knows your heart / All of your sorrow grief and pain / Locked away in the forest of the night / Your secret heart belongs to the world / Of the things that sigh in the dark / Of the things that cry in the dark
Moro You know, you could always jump, boy. End it all. As soon as your strength returns, the mark will spread and destroy you.
It feels like I must have been asleep for weeks. I had a dream that San was by my side, nursing me.
Moro [to the wolf cubs]
You two stay with San. I must go to the Forest Spirit.
Right. Let's go.
