And So We Meet

With the tension from his latest run-in with his brother Greed still making his neck stiff and jaws clenched, Ramsay couldn't sleep. He found himself wandering the plains, looking to the dark horizon where the land and sky met, stars painting the night sky and the moon tinting everything with a faint silver glow. Grand as it was to look upon, it didn't stop his mind from racing, wondering if he would ever make amends with his siblings. Up until now, it was all that had mattered to him in his life. He didn't know anyone beyond his family. He didn't care about anyone else. He just wanted to experience life, and conquer enemies alongside his brothers. What else was there? Little did he knew that there was much he hadn't experienced in his young life.

He paused in his step when he heard a voice call out to him, and when he turned, he realized there was a silvery-coated woman standing not so far from him. It was as though she had blended into the moonlight, and he hadn't noticed her at all. But as he turned toward her, her voice still ringing in his ears, he was intrigued. Her tone was like a lure, drawing him in, and he padded toward her, black paws scuffing the dry grass as he approached her. It wasn't often he socialized with anyone outside of his family... in fact, this might be the only time. Yet, he didn't feel standoffish or uncomfortable - he recognized the woman from the raid meeting, the way she had stood against Gryphon for his challenge toward Dragon. She seemed fairly strong and sure of herself, and he was curious about her.

"My mind was racing," he responded honestly, olive green eyes wandering over her briefly,
"What about you? It's a little late, isn't it?" Ebony-rimmed ears pressed forward, wondering her reasons for being up and about under the moonlight.
