They were finally here. It had felt like a distant dream and an exciting promise until now and suddenly it was all a reality. She smiled as she stood alongside Resin and looked over the hot springs that were now theirs. It was strange to think that they would no longer call the plains home after all this time, but this felt right. She was nervous and excited all at once. Even though she hadn’t been feeling her best as of late, she was determined to not put a damper on this important day. A little grin pulled at her lips when Resin nuzzled behind her ear, the knowledge that this land was theirs ringing true when her lover pointed out that this was her new home. “Our new home,” she emphasized in return, tipping her head up to place a kiss on Resin’s cheek. She most certainly wouldn’t be here on this new adventure if it wasn’t for her lover. It was her home and she was happy to say so, but she was even happier to know that they were going to shape this place into what they wanted it to be together. Her stomach turned for what felt like the hundredth time in the last few days, distracting her a bit from Resin’s questions over what she thought they should do to start building their home here. She settled onto her haunches and leaned into Resin’s side while she let the nausea pass. She really wished she knew what she had eaten that had upset her stomach so drastically so she could be sure to avoid it altogether in the future. “I think the tree line there would be a good place to start building some dens,” she replied once she was sure she could speak without accidentally getting sick in the process. She motioned toward the trees that made up the far side of the hot springs, near the top of the pools where they connected with the river that fed into them. ”It would be easier to reach the fresh water from the river with the dens up there. Maybe we can put together some sort of area for the healers to work down here around the shallow pools at the bottom.” |
