Ashes to Ashes

*Ashiel* · 11-12-2017, 05:01 PM

Ashiel was struggling to will himself to move. He could see the sky lightening on the horizon as he peered out from his den but he just couldn't bring himself to get up. Ashiel rolled onto his other side so that he was staring at the darker part of the den. He'd been in a mood and he was still sore from his last little excursion. Ashiel had been testing his bravery and while he was cave exploring with Lydia he'd been trapped in a cave-in. He blamed Lydia for it. He wanted to explore alone but she just had to tag along and he only went into that cavern because he was trying to get away from her and as a result he'd gotten hurt. It wasn't bad but he'd been wounded none-the-less. As a result… Lydia was gone. His mother wouldn't tell him what had happened to her and Ashiel told himself she was just some useless mortal who'd die anyway but all his life she'd been there and now she wasn't. Ashiel didn't care for change. He didn't like change in general.

Ashiel rolled over once more. Finally he hauled himself to the feet to go get a drink. His mother expected him up before dawn and he was always the last one out of the den. She'd chewed his ass out after the rescue. He was almost a yearling and still acting like a pup, whatever that meant. Ashiel was working his way down to the river that flowed at the bottom of the canyon when he saw one of his family members stretching up on a flat rock. Ashiel padded over toward the other. He couldn't remember which relative this was. "Good morning, what are you doing? Are you going on patrol? Can I join you?"
