And this is where it took me:



As the ethereal bodies moved around her she embraced their energy, taking it in, letting it renew her. They had heard her call as she staggered through the woods broken and disorientated. They had brought the light too, to guide her, knowing that she needed to reach home.

She dared not think what state her beloved children might be in after several days alone, she could only hope they were still alive and he hadn’t ravaged them too; they were only innocent after all, knowing nothing of the craft she had yet to pass to them.

Despite his efforts he hadn’t defeated her, but she couldn’t be sure he wouldn’t take revenge; the very thought quickening her step now she had strength and sight again.
