described you clearly, but the sky began to fall

Sedna hadn’t spent much time on the southern continent. As she eyed the strange trees that sprung up around her and the strange red sap that dripped from them, the flipping of her stomach told her that maybe it was for the best. Her opossum was perched on her neck, muttering low warnings and tugging her ears. She rolled her blazing orange eyes, of course she knew what the plants were, and under other circumstances, she would have already begun to gather the sap, but right now? Well, it wasn’t an ideal time for her to go handling medicines that could aid in abortion. As unpleasant as being pregnant was, whatever children came of it were very much wanted.

Her teeth twitched back and forth in time with the turning of her ears. There hadn’t been any packs here the last time she was this far south, and she had already passed two, one had the familiar scent of Artorias and Briar about it, the other had a hint of something Ashen it, though she couldn’t quite put her paw on it. Either way, she had skirted both as best she could.

For now though, she would continue south, and mark this place out in memory for… other times. Dragons blood was also useful to mix into a poultice or even for stomach upsets and ulcers. No point to write off the area completely just because it didn’t suit her now.

Once she hit the coast, then she would make up her mind about whether she went east, or west. Best to get her exploring in while she was still slim enough to travel.
