It was both incredible as well as depressing how quickly time as passing him by. It felt like just yesterday when he'd been frolicking the plains with Aiden and Rhea, without a care in the world - but in another way it felt as though it'd been a lifetime ago. He'd been a different wolf then, and sometimes he wished he could go back to being so blissfully naive. Perhaps it was better this way, at least for Abaven and all of his family, but some days it was hard to shake the dark cloud that seemed to hang over him. Life was hard, and they'd all been through a lot... though things could always be worse, there was a time when he remembered them being better, too. Maybe not better, but different - and definitely easier. Dwelling too much on the past was something he found himself doing more often than not these days, and reminding himself he needed to focus more on the present was something he struggled with. Today was one of those particularly hard days. The only thing that seemed to truly clear his mind was wandering. At least he could scout the borders of the islands and see if any prey was about. Prey wasn't nearly as abundant here as it was back home, but he had no doubt that things had changed drastically back in his birthplace - he hadn't dared venture out that way yet. It seemed he wasn't the only one wandering today. Near the edge of the water he noticed Twig, looking across the water back at the cliffs at the edge of Abaven's old territory. Clearing his throat, he slowly approached, not wanting to startle her. "Afternoon, Twig," he called out gently, wondering if she too was lost in thought today. "It's a nice view," he offered, moving to stand near her. The volcano wasn't good for much of anything, but he couldn't deny it cast quite a breathtaking sight, towering above the cliffside in the distance, across the glimmering stretch of water. |
