Auster’s winter had brought its challenges - from the rain soaked earth to the occasional chill from the ocean winds. But Lae enjoyed every bit of it, just as she welcomed the spring they had with open arms and bright eyes. She’s gotten a spring in her step back since the sky cleared and the sun rose, lighting the fields even as the afternoon began to make its way through the hours. Well, perhaps spring was more a metaphorical sense for her pace - the woman had recovered miraculously from her paralysis, but it would take more than a few seasons before her endurance would fully recover. Even then, her movements would likely always be a bit stiff, a tad shaky, and she would likely never be able to spring and jump again. She didn’t mind, though - she much preferred to take her time navigating the lands anyways. Within limits, of course - Mel would begin to whimper if she so much as began wobbling out of the castle’s view.

The flowers were fresh and drew the woman in, her still-bony but healthier looking pelt shimmering in the sun’s rays as she twitched her nose, taking in the sweet smells. A smile lit up her lips as she glanced down at Mel, the steadfast badger who’d become her aide as well as a good friend. He didn’t mind shuffling next to her so as to help her balance, and even he found himself marveling at the lush growth the spring had brought. Though still a tad wobbly, it was clear from looking at her that the woman was getting better at walking, her steps gradually becoming less trembly and lamb-like as she paced herself through the fields. It was peaceful, the two of them making their way through the growth. It wasn’t long before they came across a familiar face - one who also was enjoying what Auster’s lands had to offer.

Laeta’s face beamed about as bright as the sun itself as she spotted Sota picking flowers, her tail weakly wagging as she padded towards him, muscles twitching slightly from the exertion of her journey from the castle, but overcoming it just to see her friend. "Sota! How lovely to see you again,” She said cheerfully. She paused to glance about at the colorful array of flora, particularly the daisies that had captured the foraging wolf’s sttention. "I see you’re enjoying the flowers as well. Aren’t they simply gorgeous?" Indeed, it’d been a while since she’d seen such color in the land again - after all the pack had endured, it was nice to see some blissful sights once more.
