Sunset Sublime

Navigation - Lazuli Falls

Being a member of a pack seemed to have ups and downs. Things looked up when she reunited with Dragon and got to spend a potentially excessive amount of time with him, pestering him when he tried to do alpha type things and convincing him to sleep in late and be her pillow. It was a pretty good time, really. She'd yet to tire of it, which was a bonus. But, the downs came when Arwen got upset about Iskra deciding to join Dragon's pack and Iskra wasn't sure if she should try to convince her to join too, or just let the girl be for a while. Growing weary of thinking about such matters and wanting to enjoy more of Auster since it was now her home, Iskra had opted to set off on yet another grand adventure in hopes of having some fun and clearing her mind for a while.

The woman made it a fair distance in a relatively short amount of time, moving swiftly on those red legs wrapped in ivory ribbons of markings, appreciating how beautiful Auster remained even as things began to warm up and dry out. How often did the continent contend with things like wildfires? It wasn't even the peak of the dry season and she could see how it could get to be exceptionally warm. For now though, the plant life stayed strong in the rising heat, holding onto its lively verdant appearance for dear life. Wandering past Wraith's Woods, she's found a place where a small stream coming from a lake ran into a larger creek, but that territory was claimed. Turning slowly and moving a bit north towards the water, she first faintly heard, and then saw the falls. Her eyes grew wide with excitement and the red woman charged forward to investigate this exciting new landmark at a quick lope.

Without hesitation she'd climbed up part of it, and when she was lass than halfway up she turned to look down at the pool below her. It had been quite deep where she'd been, and the water was just beautiful. She was so close to the waterfall where she stood that it's spray hit her shoulder and sprinkled bits of water over her coat. Out of the corner of her eye she noted a larger man also climbing the falls, but she ignored him. Gathering her body under her, Iskra tensed like a coiled spring before jumping forward and down from her perch, flying through the air and falling down, down, down until she hit the water and sunk several feet through it. She was near enough to the bottom to decide to swim down a little and push off of it with her hind legs to help herself resurface quickly. When she at last could breath she took large gulps of air for several moments, grinning like a fool at what she'd just done. That was fun!
