we come together

Gin had arrived in the God's Garden as dawn broke over the horizon. The air here was distinctively damp, and it smelled like rain. The girl had tucked herself away in an abandoned fox hollow to rest for a while, figuring it safe enough. Tucked away carefully, there was no way anything could find her, and if nothing could find her, then she'd be safe. Sleep had come more easily than usual, the ghost near exhausted from travelling. It hadn't been bad, a nice walk really overall, but it had been long. Overhead, the canopy of leaves from the stately cedar trees had been enough to keep the rain out of her temporary shelter. It had been a good sleep. But not nearly enough sleep. The call that pulled her from her rest was one she recognized-- it was time. Carefully, she pulled herself from her hideaway, giving a great shake to free the leaf litter from her ghostly coat. With a stretch and a sigh, she carefully padded into the rain. A hard blink once, twice, as she cleared the sleep that made her eyes bleary. All around, rain was coming down. Torrential rain. It was enough to put a damper on her mood, but that was fine. At least there was no sun to cast its harsh light on everything. No, the dense cast of grey really was a positive. Carefully, Gin picked her way towards the wall. Meishu stood atop it, stately. How was he not cold? Gin could feel the cold seeping into her bones as the rain soaked her coat. Though she did her best to conceal her anxiety as she approached, it certainly wasn't the easiest-- not with wolves starting to gather around him. It had been a time since Gin had been around this many others at once. The long night had left her worse than it had found her, but it was no matter. Briefly, respectfully, she dipped her head in greeting to Meishu before finding a spot at the foot of the wall to take a careful seat. It was with enough distance from the others to keep her comfortable, enough of an angle to keep them in her periphery. Gin would not be startled, and would not be too uncomfortable to pay attention during this gathering. She wouldn't have it. |
