Shae had a lot to think about as her dark paws carried her to the other side of Abaven’s border. As a yearling now she was allowed to go to and from, but leaving on her own was still nerve wracking. Especially when her mind was so preoccupied. Seeing her grandmother’s spirit, saying goodbye to her grandfather… Her own father returning… It just felt like a lot. She had to get out and clear her head, so she paced towards the firefly lake.
The scenery always made her think of nights when Sparhawk would bring her out here to tell her stories and sing songs with her. It was a place of sadness in his absence, but now that he was back… Shae wasn’t sure how to feel. Quietly she waded through the cattails, trying to stay alert but continuing to get caught up in her own thoughts.
So distracted she didn’t realize that she wasn’t alone. Across the lake sat an older girl looking like she came here just as Shae did to contemplate life’s events. The young Destruction girl finally lifted her blue and lavender eyes to catch sight of the woman. A blush on her cheeks and too shy to say anything to the stranger Shae froze as her mind could decide between an apology or fleeing.
