She had never been to the gorge before, so on a rather drag and cloudy day, why not check it out? She knew it used to be a river but was completely dried up and left behind natural tunnels and caves. The grey sky was a relief to the dark woman, able to visit this dry place without overheating due to sun exposure. Carefully she made her way down the main path where the river must have flowed. Standing there she looked about. What could possibly live here? Why had Erani claimed this land? She supposed the many cave and tunnels could be useful when under siege, fleeing enemies, and ambushing them. But would she find plant life here? Trotting one sky blue eyes scanned the area. But oh how quickly the mind can switch to something she wished not to think about. Where was Cael? Why did he leave her? Would she find his body in one of these many tunnels? The thought of it was horrific! She shook her head as the first drops of rain fell. Lifting her head up to the sky she sighed. Perfect, the weather seemed to match her mood. Yet she was grateful, knowing the land needed the rains. She looked about for an alcove to climb up on and shelter from the rain that was starting to come down harder. Finding one she easily jumped up and settled down to wait the storm out. Oddly enough this place was peaceful, silent, and empty. A place she could wallow in sorrow without anyone seeing her. |
