Comet
Comet could feel something was off about the snail. She wondered what she did wrong. While the snail was thinking, she went off and killed some prey. Comet could simply not see what was wrong about that, and was very worried that the snail would not like her very much anymore. I do not quite know what it means either, just something similar to a mother? she paused, Are you angry with me? Should I leave? asked Comet.

Calmly, Sunny watched Comet go. A strange one, certainly. Not one of her family, not like Madhukar or Tema or the little life-stones, but maybe one day. There was always a chance, with things like these. She returned to her ferns, considering her family again. The sense of near-jealousy she felt when she thought of them elsewhere -- like Oka leaving her for the city-builders, or Carja staying with Monceros.
Not a good feeling. She had no claim to those two -- nor anyone else, really. Just because she was their
