Kamala |
There was another wolf out here. Distracted though Kamala might have been, it was hard to miss the scent that rolled under her nostrils. It took her a moment longer to place the scent than she would have admitted to anyone else. Tiresias. The second wolf that she had welcomed to Seracia, the first being the illfated Segar. She hardly recalled that meeting anymore, though she remembered Tiresias well enough. He, at least, had not caused enough trouble in their pack to give Kamala a headache to last a decade. She could only imagine how her father had felt, trying to sort all of that out. A wry smile twisted Kamala's maw for a moment, though it fell away within seconds. She didn't have the energy to maintain such a smile. Still, she adjusted her path slightly, heading towards the older male. His greeting was quiet, something she appreciated. It didn't jar too harshly against the silence she had been accustomed to keeping. It took a moment of focus for Kamala to make her tail wave in greeting, "Hello, Sir Tiresias." She had to be polite. Always polite. Even now, even when insecurity gnawed at her every thought, she had to be polite. She was a Princess. She had to represent Seracia well. It was her duty. The pack came first, and then her own feelings. Well, that probably wasn't a healthy way to look at things. And even knowing that, it was hard to feel that. It was hard for her to put away everything and throw herself back into looking after Seracia. Which was why she had mostly kept to herself lately. Soon she would be strong enough to handle this and help her brother run his Kingdom, right? Hopefully before he decided that she wasn't good enough for him either. Okay, time to think about something else! Twitching her ears, as if to drive away a bothersome fly, Kamala turned her attention towards Tiresias. "How is Seracia treating you, Sir?" She inquired lightly, hoping that it would be enough to distract her, to keep her mind focused on something else. But she would have to be careful, if she chose to have a conversation with this male. |
