Nightfall came early in the winter and so Dusk was making the most of the scattered rays of sunlight that filtered down from the clouded sky above. The warmth soaked into her pelt, especially the obsidian ring around her neck. She welcomed it. Winters were capable of being extremely harsh, though the previous had been somewhat mild. It was best to enjoy the weather while it was still enjoyable. So, earlier in the day, the striped fae had scaled some of the stacked stone pillars, making her way upwards. Long, slender legs had allowed her to easily leap from one stone to the next. Some of the stacked pillars were a little wobbly and she was forced to stand still until they ceased quivering, but she finally found a platform suitable to her needs. Dusk had been napping, long tail hanging over the edge of the stone when a voice met her ears. The woman's olive colored eyes cracked open and she listened as claws scraped over stone.

He didn't seem to be complaining about it, though no one was listening if he did, as far as he would know. Dusk kept her silence. Some time later a second man arrived. Obsidian ears pricked forward as he questioned the first. What was so odd about some silly rocks? Sure they were a little different than other rocks, but at the end of the day, rocks they still were.

She looked down upon the two men and huffed lightly, giving her location away. "Sure was quiet around here til you boys came along." Though her words were chiding, her maw had shifted upwards in a grin. Teeth flashed momentarily before her grin settled into a smirk. She would wait for their retorts. "Speech"
