None Shall Pass

"Eska"

Silver dipped toes picked their way across the glittering sands of the bridge that connected Boreas and Auster. The sun was shining brightly over head and the brindled fae had her eyes squeezed mostly shut against its blinding light. She almost missed the gharial that was stretched across the sandy bridge, having come ashore to absorb some much needed heat. Dark ears flicked forward as Eska stopped. Golden eyes observed the massive reptilian with its oddly long face. She needed to get around it to get back to Auster. Swimming around it wasn't an option. If she splashed about, there was a chance that the reptile would go out into the water with her. She would be no match for it there. Her only other option was to harry it long enough to make it flee so that she could skirt past.

With a sigh to steel her nerves, the silver spattered fae rushed towards the hind end of the crocodilian. Her teeth bit into its tail before she retreated just as quickly. The beast spun, a hiss on its lips as it's long jaws snapped at her. This area of the bridge was narrow and Eska's paws touched water as she backpedaled. A frown pulled the corners of her mouth down. This could potentially be quiet dangerous.
