A Moment Apart [Erys]

Erys liked to go out with Lydia, he was a more timid pup but he was strengthening with every day. He was closing in on his adult height, but his horns seemed to grow slower. He was filling into his proportions and beginning to really decide where he wanted to go in life. Healing had been a big part of his recovery, and after everything Kesali had done for him, the boy felt like he needed to give back.

Today he was out helping the woman who had saved his life the day he’d been washed ashore. He smiled up at Lydia brightly as she called back to him. He had gathered his own little bits of plants, a few things Lydia had dropped as well as a couple things he had recognized all on his own. He placed them at his paws to answer, ”I’m alright!” He called out, brightly colored tail wagging as he grabbed up his herbs and trotted towards her. Erys could have remained out foraging for a few more hours, but he wasn’t much a fan of storms. Already he could feel the change in atmosphere and his fur prickled at his skin.

He was looking forward to getting back and snuggling up to Lydia while the storm passed. Maybe they would organize the herbs together, he wasn’t much help at that but it did reinforce his identification skills.
