While Celeste had been staying in, Cyanide had been venturing out. She wanted to know not just Ashen's packlands, but everything around them too. There were so many things to see, so many things to do. Hell, Oki had been the first soul that had acknowledged her within Boreas. He'd "kidnapped" (jokes, jokes, she swears) her shortly after. Now with the safety that having an actual home provided, Cyanide was relatively free to explore. She had somewhere to retreat if necessary, if she crossed too many lines or managed to stick her foot in her mouth at any point. Equally as important as knowing the lands around Ashen, though, was learning what exactly was within the packlands as well. Cyanide had taken some time to familiarize herself with the islands that made up the archipelago, but the shrine? Well, today was the first. Today was the first day she'd really take to look at it, to venture well within the heart of the place. There was something eerie about it, something that left Cy grateful that she was exploring in the daytime. Around her shoulders, the air here seemed strange. Awfully, terribly still. It made her pulse climb uncomfortably. There was also the question of the light that seemed to glow from the heart of this place, throwing a purple cast on just about everything it touched. From the treeline, Cyanide approached. Ah there was... there was company already beside the pool. Fuck. Celeste and... shit, which one of Oki's sisters was that? It couldn't be Takeshi, seeing as he was... well, a boy. Kitsune was red, so it wasn't her either. It was Shuriken or Ikigai, according to process of elimination, and the wraith wasn't about to stick her paw in her mouth and guess wrong. Nah, not a coin she was willing to flip. Instead, Cy would simply straighten her posture and walk to the side of the pool, feigning confidence as well as she could muster. Was this walking into the hornet's nest? Maybe. She'd probably be fine though. "So uh, is this safe to drink?" The wraith tapped at the surface of the water, poised on the edge across from the princess. She offered a smile to Celeste and the royal, trying to appear as relaxed as possible. Right. The whole being social thing. Shit, how hard could it be? Relax, Cy, you're fine. Yeah. She was fine. |
