Pulvis et umbra sumus [Malleus]

*Pyralis* · 12-02-2017, 11:49 AM

Pyralis moved with relaxed ease, taking in the terrain and the air. The crashing of waves was like a symphony and the smell of the salty air just delighted her senses. Then of course there was the ocean itself, a vast seemingly incomprehensible body of water with untold wonders and horrors. If there was truly evidence of some sort of divine creator then surely it was the mighty, mysterious ferocity of the ocean. Malleus spoke and she turned to him with a grin, catching the 'ah' in his speech that might indicate that her children's welcoming wasn't without a little bit of chaos. "Well, I'm glad. They seem to enjoy your company. Ashiel especially seems taken with you." She continued walking along the coast. In some ways Malleus was a lot like his father. Contemplative, strong, and a solid foundation for which the Abraxas could build their future, unlike her. It was one thing she'd always admired about Amon, though she'd never admit it. He always seemed so in control. Often Pyralis found herself diving into her emotions and her whims without a thought for the outcome. Her mind would shift like the tide, rolling in, rolling out. Calm one minute, a raging storm the next. Perhaps that was why she felt so drawn to the ocean.

Malleus' next question caught her by surprise and she came to a sudden stop and turned to him. She gazed at him for a moment but not in offense but general interest as to why he chose that question. Pyralis grinned. "Would it be to cliché to say I knew the moment I saw him? I had injured myself and the wound was infected and I swear I thought it was a dream when I saw him. His pelt was unlike anything I'd ever seen. Like… stars and flames from the sun clipped from the sky and melded into a wolf form. I chose a celestial fire spirit for their father. I only intend to have the one litter so I wanted something special. I wanted to see what would happen if I bred with a spirit and you can see the results." She grinned. Of course, she would never admit it but there was something about the way he'd tended to her injured body that… well, really got her own fire going.

"Why do you ask Malleus? Are you… considering starting your own lineage?"
