Take it Easy Til You Make it Alone

Slowly, bit by bit, Arietta was learning just how different the mainland was from her home on Rikaru Island. The wolves here all carried so many scents, and there was a lot more of them to pass by. As of now Arietta had been traveling over the lands, mostly avoiding others. But it would only be a matter of time before she ran into another face to face. In some ways Arietta feared such an encounter. The smell of blood sometimes mingled with the wolf scents... or the scent of fear. What were these wolves really like? Would they turn on her? Would they bully her, or force her into slavery? Now that she had explored the world for herself, Arietta was scared of being alone... but more afraid for running into other wolves. Sure Io hadn't been bad... but...

The wolfess could scent water nearby. She had been dodging scents all morning, using the willows as shelter. But as she took a step forward a new scent hit her nose. Male. He didn't smell of blood, nor aggression, but Arietta was cautious either way, walking as if she was walking on eggshells. Once she neared the source of the water, a lake, she peered through the bushes at the strange black brute. He wasn't looking her way at the moment, so she figured it would be safe to sneak a quick drink.

Arietta quietly slipped out of the bushes, coming close to the edge of the water. She lowered her head, lapping up the cool liquid. If she was lucky the brute wouldn't notice her before she slipped away.
