It's A Perfect Denial It had been a long while since she had been on her own, or at least it felt like that. She had been so young, too young, that was one thing she knew for sure. She was abandoned with no survival skills taught to her. Her mother had let her know everyday how much she hated her and what a mistake she had been. And to some extent, it was relieving when she was finally left free. She didn't have to worry about being talked down to anymore, instead she could fix herself physically while fending for herself. It was much easier to fix that than any inner turmoil or trying to change someone whose mind was unbendable. The girl had set out to find her father now that she was old enough and strong enough.

She ventured through the bottom of the canyon, she sought to head north into Boreas to at least start her life. She had felt lonely almost her entire life and it was the only reason she missed her mother. Having no one was painful to her heart, not even a friend. What she didn't know while she was down in the canyon, following the steady stream of water upstream, was the creature stalking her from behind. She stopped for a moment, feeling the unsteadiness of the air and an unfamiliar click of claws behind her. A saber cat, something she had never been faced with before, it was somewhere out of her sights, perhaps in the caves and tunnels of the cliff side. It pounced out from the caves and towards her, she quickly avoided it, facing it ready to take it on. So Beautiful, It Makes Me |
