A small adventure

The tall princess had a lot on her mind recently and she’d done something that she was ashamed of. It weighed on her, but onwards she went trying not to think about it. Phoenix and Tanto were with her as she made a patrol, the smaller akita dog running ahead of her while the golden pheasant rested between her shoulders. He still remained the drab brown leaf coloration as an adolescent, but within the next year he would begin to grow in the magnificent golden feathers his species was named for.

Ike was doing her best just not to think when she heard the Warlord’s call from the border. Both the princess and her dog averted course to go and see what he needed. Tanto reached him firth, the silver and charcoal brindled dog offered a quick bow before introducing Shuriken with an esteemed gesture before taking his place behind her.

"Greetings, Warlord Sirius.” She offered him with a reverent bow of her dual toned features. Still ashamed of her lost antlers and the aftermath that led to her errant behavior.
