Scald was not about to just let Fic go down into Auster by herself. Not after the night of tremors or the way they sun and sky were still an ominous red. Clearly these were signs that something was very, very wrong, and while he wanted to stay home where it was safe, keeping Fic safe was important too. Because it a fast whirlwind of life, she had become stuck to him in a good way. A way that he couldn't really explain it to himself quite yet. The silence that stretched between them was a clear sign he was nervous. Scald enjoyed conversating, but he couldn't keep his mind from wondering about what was going on. What was causing all of this? When his eyes light upon the winding channels between the shore and the plains, they widen for a moment. What could have created these? He stops near the edge while Fic goes ahead to investigate. His heart is slamming into his chest as he looks around. Was it even safe to walk around these things? Scald was about to call Fic back to him when a dark colored wolf approached her quickly. Though he doubted this wolf would harm Fic as it seemed they knew each other, he still didn't like the idea of them being alone. Without protection. Even if he didn't know this wolf with an unusual accent, now he felt accountable for her safety too. She was easy on the eyes as well, he wouldn't lie about that. His gaze lingers on the small, black wolf before moving over to Fic. They're both digging eagerly, but he's not so sure that's safe. What if whatever is groaning deep beneath the surface isn't something dangerous? |
