the only water in the forest is the river

I loved all the moments with Cuddy and her daughter, and was heartbroken when it became apparent that she had died. I'm not usually a fan of Cuddy as a mother, but I did very much believe it here, and her sorrow was very real. It was a little tedious at times to try and figure out some of the sections, but I guess that was in the spirit of the fic, where Cuddy is still reeling from the death of her child. I loved how quiet it was. Thank you for sharing it.
