May I take you home?

Ochitsuki had spent the night with Hattori's pack and had thought long and hard about her future. Nothing was certain for the woman anymore. Before the coup, it was believed that she would be the next leader of her clan. Now there was no clan and Ochitsuki Ishii was princess of nothing. She would never be a normal wolf, but she was essentially on the same level as them. The woman had nothing, but that didn't mean that she was nothing.

The black and white fae had been deep in thought when a voice rang out, calling for her. Her brow furrowed for a moment and she felt the bandage that covered her eye. Enough of that. Ochi swept the bandage aside and tossed it into the fire. The fae blinked a few times against the light as her eye had been covered for a few days, but was soon good to go. Ochi cut through the bamboo, her lithe form sliding between the sky touching stalks until she found herself on the opposite side. She moved out aways onto the water-starved landscape and noted an earthen figure that seemed to almost blend in with the shadowed landscape itself. It was amusing to the woman.

Moving beneath the one of the giant trees, Ochitsuki came face to face with Kotori, looking upon him for the first time with both her blue and orange eyes. "Kotori-sama" the woman greeted him with the barest of nods. "I am surprised to see you here. Is everything okay?" The fae's brow furrowed slightly as she asked. Had her enemies followed her trail to his lands? She imagined that he might be a bit more upset if that had been the case, but she would rather ask than assume.
