Outer Reaches

*Riva* · 07-01-2018, 05:20 PM

Still feeling exposed, she made her cautious approach across the sand bar. Her paws dug into the sand, kicking up a gentle spray of white mist behind her with each step she took. Occasionally she would lean to the side and sniff at the water lapping with all the gentleness of a kitten against the sand around her. The tang of salt burnt her nose and she sneezed softly, lifting her head and - and she would freeze in surprise.

Another wolf was making the crossing from the other side, already on the approach, almost silent in her steps, making no effort to call out to her. She hadn’t expected the sight of another wolf here, through perhaps it shouldn’t have surprised her - it was the only crossing between islands. The stranger came to a stop some distance from Riva, and Riva hesitated, uncertain, until she caught sight of the pouch and lifting her head to the air, she thought she could the faint whiff of herbs. Was this woman a healer? She was almost completely matched in height with Riva, and there was nothing hostile that she could see in her face. After only another moment's hesitation, she started to walk forward again. “Good day for a crossing.” she called out, tilting her head to the side, a slight smile warming her dark features.
