The Choice - Brian

The small woman drifted across the lands like the wind, moving here and there with nothing to stop her. Since Ashen dissolved, Seere had had nothing to keep her in one area for long, her family having made their way to different packs and different lands. Without her family, she felt hollow and untethered to the world... yet something kept her moving, kept her heart beating, and her eyes were always searching the horizon for something… more.

Why the sky turned blood red, Seere had no idea and why she finds herself near the cliffs on this day, at this exact moment, she could not tell you why. But the voices pull her at her, urging her down to the sandy beach and toward a sea cave where a group of strangers gather around a wheezy wolf. Concern etches her features as she approaches, her medical bag as always, snuggly fitted over her shoulder.

Her voice is calm yet filled with the soft authority of a medical professional seeking to do their job as she says, “I am a healer and my name is Seere Klein-Destruction. Please, let me take a look at you.” Mismatched gaze roves over the strangers before landing on the wolf who seems to be having difficulty breathing and she takes a tentative step forward a gentle smile on maw as she tries not to overwhelm any of them.

Slow and steady wins the race.
