Back To The Earth I'm Falling
Nefari Exploring <3

"I'm not lost. I'm just exploring." Nefari said those words for what seemed to be the hundredth time as she passed a suspiciously familiar looking snow-covered rock. Bright eyes flit across the entire snow-covered landscape, a deep groan loosening from her throat as she spied the tell-tale signs of her own footprints just a few feet away in the snow. "See, not lost. I know where I am because I've been here before. I'm merely exploring." Whether she was trying to convince herself or her companion that she had left sleeping in a tree somewhere was out for debate. With the sun still high in the sky, though, it was highly unlikely the little nocturnal glider would miss her for a few hours yet. Having walked for hours, though, she wasn't consoled by this, her anxiety weighing on her like a thick bog as she searched the horizon for something familiar. As she spoke to herself, her eyes caught on an interesting copse of trees in the distance, their long swaying branches looking like icy fingers reaching for the glistening snow. Underneath was a sight even more welcome, causing Nefari's lithe body to rocket through the snow. Her fur glinted like fire in the sun, her tail like a trail of flames in contrast to the snow, her paws pumping so hard she kicked up a storm of flurries behind her. She yipped a "Hello!" of warning to the wolf enjoying its alone time, and with a few hundred feet, she was standing before them. Her tongue, lolling out the side as she panted, held up a large lupine smile that lit up her features. "Hi! Sorry to interrupt your walk, but do you happen to know where we are?" Tail swaying back and forth, she did her best to look nonthreatening, though she was sure her stature did that for her. Now that she thought about it, she turned a calculating eye to the wolf that she had run up on and, suddenly, worried about them not being friendly. |
