At the cusp

The air had a chill to it that told her that winter had begun to creep in on them, but they were lucky enough to be far enough into the south west that snow hadn't quite reached them yet. It was just beginning to show the first signs of cold and it made her grateful that they would soon reach her family's pack. Their border was extremely close, close enough that they could easily reach it, but... It had been a long journey and she wanted a moment to rest and untangle the nervous knot of energy twisting in her stomach. She had brought her family here under the assumption that Baine, Nolan, and Casso had made it here safely and that they were now living in this pack. There was just so much unknown that made her uncertain. What if they hadn't made it? What if the pack wasn't held by their family any more and wouldn't welcome them?

Daelos tried not to let her mind wander down that path, but it was difficult. She settled on her haunches next to Ochre as Elba and Aslaug went off to explore the Avian Estuary, leaning into his side with a sigh. They wouldn't go far, but she also wasn't concerned about them being on their own for a while. They had grown into quite capable young women and she gave a proud smile as she watched them go. It was getting late in the afternoon and the sun was sure to begin setting soon enough. "Maybe we'll rest here for the night and then go to the pack's border in the morning?" she offered, tipping her two-tone blue gaze up to meet her mate's.

She smiled a little as she looked at him. Something about being near him and their daughters had such a way of calming her. All she really hoped for now was for this trip to Boreas and leaving their old home behind to be worth it. She was excited to see Baine again and hoped that her aunt was still doing alright despite her health issues.
