It had been a few days now but the pain was still intense. Jaws stretched open as wide as possible, lips pulling back. It would be seem like she had something irritating stuck in her throat but if one actually saw, half her tongue was gone. She would snap her jaws closed with an loud audible crack. She had no problem with the fact her tongue was gone, no, she had been willing to give it. Her King made an offer for exchange for only her tongue. She had willing obliged. But no one would ever learn this, they would never learn the truth of her missing tongue. Not just because is was nearly impossible to speak but because she would never tell. She would never betray her beloved King of the Night.
But enough of that, she was on a mission. She had to find Demoino and her brother. In was finally here, and though she resided in the south to keep near Kusugra, the chill had even reached there. Now in the west it was more noticable and her pelt fluffed out as she shivered. The scent of Valhalla was strong to her right side as she trotted along the borders. She was hoping Demoino was here, since he seemed to be moving this way last time she had seen him. She froze mid-step, left forepaw raised. How would she ask for him though? Or even tell this pack who she was? She shook her head roughly and continued. Thats why she had to just linger at the borders till she found him. She smacked her lips to moisten them. Loosing her tongue had not been to much of a problem other than the intense agonizing pain. She had no idea how to make it feel better. Holding cold water in her mouth and spitting it out helped some, but the pain was always there. Surely though it would go away in time.
Unlike most wolves the earthen colored girl had a high tolerance for pain. She did not know this, thinking her pain was normal had it happened to someone else. She had never experienced any high amount of pain before, so this was it. She was able to keep her mind buisy from it though. She had spent most of her time hunting for Kusugra and herself to make sure they would be healthy for the winter and now finding Demoino ane her brother. She wished she could just howl out to him. But something told her she would cross paths with her brother soon enough. Sea green eyes widened in alarm, he would surely expect her to talk! What would she do? Brows furrowed and she frowned. Ah! She can just pretend to be sick and have lost her voice! Yes that was prefect!. She glanced at the borders again looking for the white knight.
