purple lights

The days had gotten longer, the afternoons stretching farther into the evening. Selkie is grateful that the rains seemed to have slowed as well, though they still lingered. The weather was still raw and damp and heavy, hanging thickly in her lungs. The damp that never seemed to go away… that’s okay though! It didn’t have to go away entirely. It just needed to be clear enough for her to go out to play, she swears. Selkie would make the best of it!

Though the afternoon was still chilly, she’d make the most of it. Playing in the canyon was fun, and the little girl was growing bold. Today she decided she’d be making a game of hopping between the boulders, seeing just how far she could jump between them. Hopping and leaping, it was actually a pretty good time! It’s not like they were that tall either. Only a little taller than Selkie herself, and it hasn’t taken that much effort to get up here. Playing and romping in the fading afternoon sunlight, the shadows growing long around her, Selkie was just having the best time.
