Soul on Fire

Valdís worked her way down the east side of the maw. The eastern mountains were covered with snow and fully in winters grip. She paused in her descent, gazing out at the view of the eastern territories then back toward the south where she would be making her new home. She was restless. She felt like there was still so much she needed to do to get herself fully settled in. Top of the list was to finally tell Ásvor how she felt. This was getting silly. If she didn't tell her friend by the end of winter then she truly was a coward. She valued their friendship and hoped that even if Ásvor didn't feel the same they could still be good friends. If she had to she could find a way to let the feelings go. Valdís carefully worked her way along a steep incline, moving on instinct as she let her thoughts drift here and there. She was jolted from her thoughts as a sudden rumbling caused her limbs to recoil, her body scrunching down close to the ground to make it easier to maintain her balance. She turned her head to the volcano and gasped. Fire and smoke were spitting up from its top. Shit! No! She was finally working up the courage again to talk to her friend and the gods deemed now of all times to try and snuff her out? To hell with that! Gritting her teeth Valdís careened through the rocky terrain. She'd spent enough time in Crew back when they had the run of the maw to know how to navigate rough terrain. There! She spied an opening gleaming in the low light. From the angle she was at she could see a dark-pelted wolf laying not to far from the entrance. She didn't stop to see if he was awake or if he might want to share. She burst through the opening, noticing a small, white-pelted wolf was there as well. She smirked. "What is this? A party and I wasn't invited? I'm appalled!" The ground rumbled once more and her voice fell quiet. Were they safe here? "Talk" "You" Think |
