With the Bonfire Festival underway, Audra looked up at the flickering flames. Reaching high to the sky in an array of sparkling colors, she was happy to be here. Happy to be home. Once upon a time, she had wished to not reside within the Hallows pack. Having convinced herself that she didn't belong here, it had been foolish of her to go. The journey she had experienced in the north after her departure had been eye-opening. Learning her lesson, she had returned swiftly and now sat amongst friends and what she now considered family.

This time though she sat off to the side. A certain someone sitting beside her, Audra was fine with the distance. Not in the way of anyone else but close enough to feel the warmth of the bonfire, she made sure to look every few moments at Gloom. Also keeping an eye out for any rambunctious puppies that might roll themselves too close, Audra laid down in the grass to get more comfortable and create a better barrier between the crowd and Gloom. "Are y-you enjoying th-the f-fire?" Her voice is soft and quiet, barely heard over the roar of the flames. She wanted nothing more than to ensure that Gloom was comfortable and having somewhat of a good time. Audra understood that Gloom didn't belong to the Hallows, that she would have to eventually make her way home, but for now, she would at least make sure her time recovering was a good one.
