homeward bound

It had been too long. Fortune had moved with the herds, as always, but she'd moved too far. She'd gotten lost, and then far more lost. More lost, and then caught up in a herd of mule deer. One of them had stepped upon her, and for a while, she'd thought she'd die on the spot. Fortune's not so grand adventure... wandering healers, gypsy healers, they always take their toll. They'd patched her up as best they could, she'd earned their trust. Hunting and roaming with them until she could get the directions to return home. To return to Boreas. To return to her family. Fortune Adravendi, her name would outlast her wanderings. She would return home.

Several years older, but still confident. Forward. The brave hasn't changed in too many ways, but she moves a bit more slowly than she had in her youth. Her heart is a bird, fluttering like the butterflies in her stomach. The new scar on the back of her head was well covered by her fur, but the one on her muzzle was slightly more prominent. A deer's hoof, carefully stamped across it. Such was the mark of a hunter.

At the border of the Emerald Valley, the land that she'd been privileged to call home for so long, she tips her head back and calls. It's meant to be for Faite, but whoever else was home... well, they would hear her. Her mind flickers to Rin, to her nieces and nephews, to Zell. She owed them an apology, an explanation. Would they be mad? They had every right to be. Nervous excitement fills her stomach, squeezes at her heart. She wanted so badly to come home, but would they welcome her? The brave would be patient. Fortune missed her family.
