Odette wasn't sure why she was so far away from home. The island was indeed nice and the space was big enough to keep her busy, but something about being isolated from the continent made her restless. With a brief nuzzle and loving lick to her mother, Odette had told Chrysanthe she would be on the mainland for awhile and promised to return before the sun set.
That was why she set out before the sun even peeked above the skyline. Odette swam the distance between the island and the mainland shore with a dark night sky above, only to have it change into light pinks and yellows when she reached the continent. Paws gracefully trekked the sand beneath the water and she shook herself free of the ocean before setting out to explore.
Usually, Odette would have made a beeline for the Cove in hopes of seeing her family, but the flame had dwindled in her heart, making her less excited about the mission. Instead, she chose to travel West and that was the direction she stuck with. The scenery was different from what she was used to. There were unfamiliar territories and landmarks, but she didn't mind it as she trotted on tan and gray paws. The young girl was interested in learning new things and therefore, the uncharted pieces of land made her happy.
The morning had shifted from dawn to the late morning by the time Odette came across many scents. She automatically sniffed and realized they were stale, as if they hadn't been around for some time. Curiosity peaked and she increased the speed in her pace as she crossed the now faded borders of the old Tortugan lands. Eagerness began to creep around her curiousness when she caught a scent that was not faded, but fresh! Her eyes widened and her tail wagged. Someone new was there!
Friend or foe, she wasn't sure, but Odette was going to find out. Another spurt of speed was given and she cantered through the abandoned woods to the inner circle of the pack lands. Following her nose, the Gargoyle mini-me came out in the open before heading towards the heart of the lands. It was empty and held a hint of sadness, but she didn't need to be told why that was so. Bi-colored eyes scanned the unfamiliar territory until they came across a moving brownish form. Heart rate increased and she slowly made her way towards it. The scent she had followed was of that being and she wanted to know more about him...or her. "Hello?" She gently called, tones warm and curious as they carried themselves to the stranger.
