Saga of the Dawnbringer

*Kai* · 12-01-2017, 01:29 PM

Though dusk was easily one of Kai's favorite times of the day, dawn was a close second - he loved getting up early, long before the rest of the world did, and spending time by himself before the possibility of encountering others. He was a man used to preoccupying his body most of the time, not one able to sit still for very long, so to take time out of each day to reflect was important.

It was a beautiful morning, with the earth covered in crystals of frost that glimmered and sparkled as the sun started its ascent into the sky. Kai let loose a quiet yawn as he walked, briefly pausing to stretch out his forepaws and watch his breath form a cloud in front of him. His silver gaze followed his paws for awhile, watching the shriveled grass shrink beneath his wide paws as he took slow ambling steps onward. He wove between the clusters of pine trees, lazily examining his surroundings as he went. Food might be a decent way to start his morning, but he was too sleepy to really come up with any real plans yet. Not that he was the type to plan much; he was much more apt to simply come across a scent and follow, his day usually decided on a whim rather than any set agenda.

The scent of a stranger, though, arrested his attention almost immediately - and he made no effort to fight his curiosity. It was rare he saw many wolves in this part of Boreas, especially after venturing further north as winter came, and he was almost always eager for company. Deftly he trailed after it, redirecting his aimless course with ease. Only when the female came into view did his pace slow, head tilting as he squinting to get a better look at her in the distance.

He decided immediately, with little deliberation, that she was prettiest wolf he'd ever seen. Not that he'd met all that many females - and certainly none with such a brilliant coat. Even from a distance she looked like something from another world, a palette of soft silver and beige and white, like a soft sunrise glimmering over a sheet of ice and freshly fallen snow. His jaw unhinged, just slightly, as he gaped at her as he drew closer. He made no effort to conceal his interest in her, a friendly grin tugging at his lips.

Kai's gaze wandered to the creature clinging to her back, though averted to her face as he closed the distance between them. "Morning!" he quipped easily, his tail curling slightly as it made a few slow wags behind him. "Your friend there looks quite comfortable up there," he stated, raising a brow as he assessed the duo further, his grin growing just a tad.
