Coming back to Armada after a few weeks away in The Hallows was a difficult thing to do. Every time she went to visit for one reason or another leaving became more and more difficult, but she knew it had to happen. Winter was still in full swing and even though it wasn't turning out to be as harsh as the previous winter her family would undoubtedly need her help. She didn't feel as worried or as pinched for supplies after putting away the supplies that Artorias had brought for them, but even still... Even if she hadn't felt the presence of her father and mother since the supply cellar was flooded, she couldn't make herself abandon those of her siblings she was close with. She'd have to wrap up lose ends here and ask for permission to leave before she could permanently make her home where she wanted.
She had just gotten home a couple of days prior and was getting settled back into the den she shared with Lia, Mortis, and Hika. After a few weeks of staying in the castle in Auster where it was already summer like compared to the wintery northern continent, but then also having the option of lighting the fire places when it got chilly at night she was having an awful time readjusting to the snow and cold. She stayed in the den most of her first day back with sniffles and coughs from the sudden change in climate messing with her sinuses, but now with a bit of treatment from one of the healers she was back on her paws and was working her way toward the border to start a patrol.
To her surprise she found Kotori there already and she grinned a little as she fell into step beside him, giving his shoulder a nudge with her own. She couldn't remember the last time they had spent time together even though they had been pretty close as pups. Life had taken them in such different directions - not just the two of them, but all of their siblings - and sometimes it felt like it was getting more and more difficult to find them and spend time together. "Back from another adventure?" she questioned, her turquoise gaze curious. She knew he was often in and out, but she certainly couldn't blame him. The plains grew boring very quickly and t wasn't like the rest of the pack was all that active to justify being here all the time.
