a time to come together [Empire Festival Opening]

Lilith followed after her father, the girl couldn’t be left at home alone again. After Ulric’s return she had practically been his little shadow. She wore her leopard fur cape, but it was wrapped around her neck more like a scarf as they traveled up fromAuster to make their appearance at the festival they were invited to attend. Her ruby red eyes took in the mass of wolves that were gathered, it was a much larger gathering than she had ever seen before. Lilith would have felt rather overwhelmed had she not been glued to her father’s shoulder. Beyond the closeness her expression was rather neutral, she didn’t let on that way at least how nervous she was. Ulric would realize it easily with how close she was, physical touch wasn’t her favorite but she needed it now in the face of this adversity.

They were given the go ahead to disperse, and Lil looked from Ulric back towards where Ezra was following after Artorias. She gave Ulric a quick look of uncertainty and when he nodded everyone off she carefully picked her way behind her brother. She spent a lot of time as Ulric’s shadow and she shifted to Ezra carefully, her shoulder against his hip as they walked.
