Just her luck huh? One of the few days she was home and you know the sea decided to pay her cliff a visit. Not that the water had made it up the cliff face at all, but it was trying. As Astrea looked down at the water below her on the path down to the family's den she was wondering how she was going to get past the now almost filled to the brim cave. She would have to dive... But she was not like Locha, she was not able to propel herself as well and did not think she could get all her body under the rising tides. But not only was she not a very strong swimmer she was also much weaker then she once was. She had not been eating and sleeping like she should, and instead she was pushing pawing at the door of death, she knew she was pushing the boundaries like she should not be, knew that some day soon she would just keel over and stop moving from hunger but even so she could not seem to force herself to slow down. She had to keep looking, she had to find her!
Astrea contemplated then to just sit her happy butt down and wait for the water to stop rising... Yes that did sound like a good idea, at least on the cliffs she was safe and dry... the water could not reach her perch right? RIGHT!? Astrea started to pace then, what if the water did make it up the cliffs, what if she was trapped... wait a second.
The Star Dreamer wanted to smack herself with her paw, it was a CLIFF! If the water some how got to the tops of the cliffs she could just, you know, swim away, no need to dive or anything. With that Astrea sat her happy butt down and just waited either for the water to stop rising and then figure something out or for it to rise to the cliffs so she could just swim away. Easy. Just waiting...
Astrea hoped the rest of the family got out of the dens okay, mainly newborns.
