Floating Land

Confusion was the first emotion that Venom could see in the girl’s naive eyes, she seemed surprised to be confronted. Venom stood unflinching, ready to defend her territory from any wayward wanderer. Even a foolish yearling such as this. Not that she could see much in the way of a real threat to anything but her own personal pride. Having two wayward souls wash up onto her shore in such a short time brought her concern. Maybe not for the she wolf before her personally, but was there something going on that Venom could not see?

She would have to investigate further at a later date, the girl had to be her highest priority right now. Her serious gaze didn’t leave the she wolf as she looked up and spoke, completely oblivious to her transgression. She spoke of nonsensical floating islands, bringing Venom’s brow up in her own confusion as she tried to decipher the words. Did she mean something else? Who believed an island was floating over the sea? Well, she was certainly young.

Then the wind changed and the situation really seemed to dawn on the young woman. Her errant wandering brought her into Venom’s domain, and she did not have permission to step foot on her beaches. "So, what have you found?” Venom went on, taking a slight step forward to put pressure on the girl. She looked sheepish all of a sudden, like she realized finally the full predicament she found herself in. "Beyond the alpha’s ire?” She hinted as she drew herself up to her full height.
