without a light

The sunlight that shown into the den's mouth may as well have been a wall of fire as far as Laufey was concerned. Just looking at it scalded his eyes. He felt awful, absolutely dreadful. There was a terrible pain in his head and a heaviness to his body that made laying completely still for the rest of his life sound like a valid game plan. Evidence in and around his den suggested that at some point - perhaps a few points - he'd gotten horribly sick. To sum up the extent of his woes, Laufey felt like death.

Oh, but he needed to talk to Katja. There were huge gaps in his memory and what was left in their wake were vague feeling, tiny inklings, of what had happened. Those little snippets filled him with dread. What had he done? Somehow he felt like he'd made a fool of himself. It was all very confusing; his inability to recall the events of the blot in detail reminding him of the time he'd been swept downstream and bashed his head against a rock.

After slowly getting to his paws Laufey slipped from the den and promptly stumbled under the weight of the rising sun. His eyes burned fiercely; the pain bringing tears to them. With much effort he blinked the stinging away and took off - very slowly - in the direction he thought he might find Katja.

It didn't take long to find her. She sat on the edge of the Gorge with her back to him. Uncertainty froze him in place. He'd give anything for a better understanding of what had happened during the blot. He needed answers. Laufey cleared his throat. "Um..." He didn't know where to start. "Katja?"
