In her mind, she wondered if they were contributing to her sudden pregnancy too. It was mating season for the dragons, so were the bodies of some Moonblessed reacting likewise?]

Yes. [Is her response to Soundwave's "What?"] I mean, it's not like I suddenly woke up with a round stomach. It progressed in a manner of days. At first, I thought I was just bloated or gaining weight, until I kept growing. I even had morning sickness.

[Which only made her feel even more crummy.]

[Her voices rises in a panic.]
