Polaris · 10-24-2023, 06:29 AM

Polaris had been traveling for quite some time now. All that she knew was that she wanted to leave her family's pack and explore what more life had to offer her. She knew what it entailed if she stayed back home with her parents and she did not want anything to do with it. She had no desire to run the pack, to be the Alpha and be in charge of others. That's why as soon as she was of age she took off, not telling anyone where she was going.

Let's be honest though, even she didn't know where she was going.

The girl was so caught up in her mind that she hadn't realized that she had reached the coast until her paws touched water. How had that happened? Last she remembered, she was surrounded by dirt and trees with the occasional bush. Then again, the amount of lands she had crossed through at this point all blurred together. She had never been beyond her packs borders, didn't know that such beauty could exist in the world. It was larger than her mind had ever allowed her to imagine. Everywhere she turned she was experiencing something new. Yet, how had she not smelt the salt of the ocean or heard the gentle lapping of the waves hitting the shore.

She looked beyond the water to see an island in the distance. Cocking her head slightly to the right, she wondered if the said island could be her new home. She put a tentative paw into the water, testing it at first. It wasn't cold but nor was it incredibly warm. Deciding that the reward outweighed the risk, the woman threw herself into the water. It was a shock at first, the cold water soaking into her pelt all the way to her skin. However, she continued paddling her feet and as she continued moving, the cold didn't seem to bother her as much. It wasn't until the water got deeper and the current stronger that Polaris started to feel the effects of her travels. She was tired, all she had been doing for days was walking. She pushed through though, as she was at a point where if she gave up she would die.

Finally, she reached a small sand spot at the island that she drug her wet body onto and there she collapsed. She was so tired and needed the rest, she would look at everything after she caught her breath. It took some time, but when she finally felt as if she was strong enough to do just a little bit more exploring, she lifted her head and let her olive gaze fall onto the island.

It was covered in trees and lush plants. There were birds chirping and she could hear critters scuttling around in the greenery. It was peaceful, secluded, and most importantly, it was away from her family and what she would call home for the time being.

She speaks
