Older & Wonder

Looking out over what used to be his father's lands, Seraphim found himself reflecting on how little had changed. Below the hill he sat atop a small herd of buffalo were nosing about through a fine dusting of snow, ripping and chewing at the withered grass they found beneath. They had seemed so monstrously huge when he was a pup. Well, they were still monstrous, but not in the same way. The memories were foggy now, those and so many others. He knew he'd forgotten more than he could ever recall, and that brought around a pang of sadness. His gentle soul hadn't yet been hardened by the years, and Phim found himself overwhelmed with longing for his family and sweet days gone by. It was what had brought him back, after all. With a huffing sigh the giant man stood and shook out his coat. The youngest buffalo, the one nearest to him as well, snorted in alarm and trotted a few paces farther away. Seraphim paid him no mind. It would be useless to try and bring down a buffalo on his own, even a yearling. Instead he turned and began working farther into the heart of his old territory, wanting nothing more than to revisit his old haunts. In the back of his mind he wondered if he might pick up any familiar scents. He hadn't seen his siblings in so long, even the faintest trace of them would make his day. He turned his back to a blustery, chill wind and walked on. |
Phim's family members are always allowed in his threads, whether specified or not!
