Sunrise

*Basileus* · 01-16-2016, 07:09 PM

With a yawn on his lips and an ache in his neck Basileus slowly rolled to his paws. He stretched stiffly and groaned. Spring was upon this land. Gone was the snow and the bitter cold. In its place were warmer days and a heavy layer of muck. It was the muck that had caused the crick in his neck. Without it he'd have bedded down in any old place instead of settling for a cranny. He was a bit of a romantic, though, so the sunrise that now tinted the land red placated him.

With sleep in his eyes the brute began to amble towards the beach. He yawned again, this time hard enough to bring tears to his eyes and an ache to his jaw. The mafioso wasn't much of a morning person, but he needed to get a jump on the day. Rising early was common for him, but he doubted he'd ever get used to it. The night suited him just fine. There was something comforting about it, something insulating and secretive. The darkness hid his actions from prying eyes and perhaps it was in there that his comfort arose.

Cresting the final dune that separated him from the beach Basileus paused to blink into the sun. Somewhere below him lay the carcass of a large sea creature. He'd found it late the previous evening and eaten his fill. While not quite hungry now he knew that the next meal wasn't guaranteed, so he thought it best to fill up before he once more took up the hunt.

OOC: It's a whale carcass.
