The Summer Bonfire Festival (Year 20)

Delphi would follow Ember, Erik, and the rest of Hemlock toward the south from Hemlock. Not that she wanted to be away from their territory currently, but she knew it would do her some good. After the beating they took from the Raiders in their recent raid, she was feeling more than dismayed at her pack's strength lately. What was she to do? Currently, not much. Without a fire to light under their paws, she was stuck pulling at nothing for ideas.

So instead, she tries to keep up, chin held high and a facade of courage and excitement drawn over her smirking lips. It seems the Hallows territory would become more familiar than she anticipated. Curious to see who all would show up, she stays to the edges of the gathering. Seeing Artorias busy before the growing bundle of wood and offerings, Delphi doesn't want to interrupt whatever ritual he was going through. Having been practically raised halfway by Vidarr, she knew a thing or two about rituals and meanings of important things.

Finding a seat not necessarily near anyone except for Strai, Delphi takes a seat. Just close enough that the fire won't be too warm once it's lit, Delphi turns to look up at Strai with a tentative smile. "I hope tonight is fun," she says quietly, leaning her shoulder over to rest against him for more than physical support, but emotional as well.
