Halo looked forward to making this land, these Plains, into her home. A place to rest, a place to call her own. Herbs to tend and somewhere comfortable and warm to sleep. Dare she think of family too? She would be able to look after them, and make sure they were taken care of both physically and mentally. Everyone here was entitled to food and medical care, per the rules, and Halo would have a big job on her hands. Halo finally had a sense of purpose. As he spoke of slaves, the tenderhearted creature listened intently. Halo's gaze on his face was soft, processing what he had to say. They were slaves, but slaves were offered a way out. Just as anyone else here, they needed to work hard and prove themselves. She believed in that, and believed in his message. I would perhaps even now still be a slave, this struck Halo, and she nodded as she processed what Sirius had to say. He'd been a slave once, and now, he sat as an alpha. Sitting beside Sirius, Halo wanted to know more. She was too shy, and likely too tired, to ask him more today. Halo followed carefully by his side as he indicated the cellar, where their stores were. "Thank you," she spoke softly, ever grateful for the kindness that Sirius had shown that day. It was as they approached the vacant dens, the tenderhearted creature realized just how tired she really was. One in particular, dug into the ground and tucked into the shade, looked particularly inviting. "Sirius, I'm sorry, is it okay if I rest for the night?" The question was soft. Her muscles ached, and there was a creeping fatigue in her system. Between the swim and the scrape with the panther, it had been an incredibly long day. |
