go forth, explore

The transition from day to night was always a mesmerizing sight to behold. Normally the sounds of the day dampened until they gave way to the soft melodies of night. Crickets, frogs, maybe even the rare hoot of an owl provided a brilliant ambiance for the evenings. Or at least they did during the warmer months of the year. Now, however, was a silent evening due to the hibernating insects and amphibians and the long migrated aviary creatures. It was almost as if the entire world was in a spell of eternal slumber. Even the plants and water didn’t dare to move as the cold had frozen most of them to a still state. And despite the eerie silence, the young maiden who refused to fall victim to the land’s spell of sleep found it beautiful. Quietly she traversed the terrain. She didn’t seem in any particular hurry or even like she had a goal in mind either. Instead, she was just traveling to travel at this point of her life. Having landed in this new land merely a few days ago, she was determined to explore the land to its fullest. Afterall, she had an adventurous spirit to begin with. She wanted to see all, experience all, and be able to tell wondrous tales of her ventures one day. This was merely just the beginning of her tales. Eventually however, she found herself approaching a rather large tree. Sure it was barren of leaves due to the weather, but it was still beautiful and a sight to behold. For a few moments, the young lady stood and admired the tree amongst the landscape and just before she decided to move onwards, her jade hued eyes caught movement of another wolf. From there her curiosity got the best of her as she soon began traveling closer. Briefly, the girl kept to herself as she looked over her soon to be temporary companion. He was much larger than her in stature…maybe by about a foot. His coat however was the most striking feature in her opinion. It was pure white much like the color of freshly fallen snow and it even seemed to have a slight radiant glow about it for the parts of it that were graced by the rising moonlight. He also had a collection of scars upon him, but the lass wasn’t one to judge from one’s past. Afterall, she had her own past that she’d wish to leave where it belonged: in the past. “It’s a beautiful evening,” she calmly called out to the male hoping not to startle him too badly as she also made herself visible to him rather than beckon from the shadows. She kept a respectable distance however because she wasn’t entirely sure how he’d respond nor did she want to seem imposing. She was just her in these new lands - no past relations or status to bind her from just being herself - and that was how she preferred it to stay. |
