Alot had changed in the past few seaons. She had changed, too. Her father had grown older...and while he looked okay, she knew he was nearing his time. She didn't know when it would happen, but she'd been trying to prepare herself for the moment it would. Whether it was a fight or some freak accident...or if even passed in his sleep...whatever the case, she'd been trying to prepare herself. Only...as she watched her father slowly walk ahead of her towards the lake, she wondered if she'd ever truly be prepared for it. He had told her once before that it was just the way things were. The great circle of life...things happened for a reason, even if they didn't know what those reasons were. Was Ignis' taking over part of some bigger work of fate? Probably. After all, her confidence had been beaten down in that cave with some strange firefly being...and as she watched the fireflies begin to dance across the water, for once...she didn't panic thinking it was him. But time healed all wounds, did it not? And despite all that happened, with her father's help, she had grown into the confident and surefooted woman she knew she wanted to be.

She paused several feet behind her father, watching as he drank some water before letting himself rest on the earth. Her vulpine brother and sister sitting beside him. They had been with him before she was born, and ever since, she had considered them as her own true siblings. Blood relation or not, she didn't care. They were as much her siblings as her littermates.

She sighed as her attention then turned back to her father, noting how tired he suddenly looked. The scars on his body were etched into her memory, just like everything else about him. He had once been a proud king, albeit not the best, but who was? Everyone made mistakes. Everyone did what they thought was best, but him? He always did what he thought was right and admitted his mistakes and faults. He was someone she always looked up to, and she had always wanted to be like him. What would she do without him...? It was something she always thought about, but...

"Winter...come sit with me, please." She looked up and nodded, moving to sit beside him. Her body pressed against his in comfort. "Dad...what am I going to do without you...?" She whined, pressing her nose against his fur.

"Speech"

Winter has a set of ram horns that aren't depicted in all of her art.
She also has a Japanese Macaque & an Osprey companion that are assumed to be with her at all times unless otherwise mentioned.
