Veni, Vidi, Vici

The earthed-hued female had been out at the dam when Aliana’s call went up and Athena turned to look in the direction of the falls. She has started patrolling the dam as well as the island and, as she moves toward the Queen’s call, a tall form suddenly catches her attention. Amber eyes turn to find Morendo moving off in the direction of the falls as well and the woman smiles to herself. He isn’t supposed to be off the island by himself and even with his dogs, the tall boy could get in trouble if anyone finds out. The earthen wolf decides to silently track him, following the boy to be certain that nothing bad happens to him. Later, if asked, she will say that she had been escorting the boy out here. She stays downwind of the boy and his dogs, going unnoticed by the trio.

Shortly after Morendo arrives, Athena trots in, giving Cerberus and Aliana a wide smile. Looking to the tall boy, she gently chides says, “Morendo, you left me in the dust! You know we were supposed to stick together.” The words hold no sting and, as she moves toward the water’s edge, she flashes the boy a knowing look. Turning her attention to the falls and everything around them, Athena breathes out, “Wow.” As awe is clearly written on her features.
