Glass Hearts
It had been at least a week or so after all that had transpired. Though she no longer kept track of time, not anymore. It wasn't worth counting down the days after the bad things happened. She found herself leaving Ivalice more often, her shoulder a little more rested now but still limping as it healed. She felt like a change of scenery, her night with Bass stored away in her mind, as was the memory of Kharnage's departure among other things. She sighed, amber gaze flicking up to see Tanaraq soaring above her. The bird had been the most comforting companion during these times, always looking out for her and guiding her along as best as she could. She was grateful for the company.
She walked slowly along the bay, somewhere she'd never been before. It was relaxing here, she had to admit. The sunset beside her was something she hardly looked at, her mind either preoccupied or empty. She didn't know what to do or think anymore, and her heart continued to ache with it all. There were things she needed to do, but she had no idea if it was the right thing or the wrong thing. She was often in conflict with herself, and she just wanted it to stop. That was when a familiar scent hit her, head lifting to make sure it wasn't a trick. Several yards ahead, she saw Creed sitting there. She was surprised for a moment, as she'd never really come across him much away from his pack.
With a wagging tail, she let out a bark to alert him of her presence as she made her approach. "Creed! It's a surprise seeing you out here!" While her voice hid her tiredness, her eyes not so much. She stopped next to him, gently greeting him with a touch to his shoulder with her nose as she then took a seat next to him on the sand. "How are you?" |
