White paws carried Rhyme toward Abaven once more, Imperia decided she preferred flight over rising on Rhyme and quickly took to the wing. Not with out a wince from the slate wolf when she took off. Flying ahead of him a bit, waiting for his four legged pace to catch up and over take her before repeating the process. Rhyme found himself mesmerized with the bird as she flew over his head between the trees. His bright eyes reflected the sun as he passed underneath the canopy, and slowly he would retell his life's story to the intelligent bird. She listened to him with out comment as they drew more near to Abaven's border, he knew she had to be doing at least that. The look in her eye when he spoke or mentioned something she found herself interested in was too pointed. Occasionally he found she told him a story as well, a short memory that the wolf had to decipher with some difficulty. Though he realized even in the short time they were together he could understand her better. The conversation slowed as Rhyme crossed back into Abaven's borders. Still following the river home Rhyme loped to where he'd held fight training. He hadn't seen Shaye on his way here, so he'd summon her to his side with a short bark. Rhyme lowered his haunches to the pebble strewn field as Imperia left the trees and took her place on his shoulder. Rhyme winced again, but stifled the motion much faster this time. |
