She laid there on her back, pale green orbs looking at the world upside down near the lake. How funny things could be, if one didn't know better, they wouldn't be able to tell what was sky or lake. The lake had a perfect reflection of the blue sky, clouds and all. The brief beauty of such a thing eased the pain in her body and soul. But it would not last long with a call from Queen Loccian. The earthen yearling rolled to her belly, ears perked. It sounded like this involved the whole pack and she could not ignore it. She didn't want to face a large group of wolves again. Already her heart had begun to race, breathing becoming labored and heavy. But what could she do?
Slowly she pulled herself up and in the direction of the call. She moved slowly, trying to calm herself down before joining the pack. Last thing she needed was for everyone to think she was not mentally right. And she didn't want anyone to see her weak in any form. Even when she reached the odd structure she lingered back. She had never been to this part of the territory and honestly that thing near Loccian freaked her out. She looked at the others already seated. So many, more than the last meeting! She shifted from paw to paw. If she wasn't trying to conceal her uneasiness she would have whined by now. Her eyes spotted Squall, the male she had recently met. He didn't seem to inclined to mingle with the others. Slowly emerging from her cover she slinked over to the tri-colored brute. She wanted to attract no attention to herself so she made herself as small as possible. A foot away from Squall eyes darted about, unsure if he would accept her presence. But one look at Queen Loccian she darted over to his side.
She didn't realize she had pressed her body close to his side, shivering with wracking nerves. She didn't though pull herself together to dip her head to the queen before curling in on herself, eyes downcast. She prayed this meeting would go by fast so she could flee out of there. She didn't want others asking why she was so isolated, why she never spoke, why this cloud of depression hung over her. Only the queen knew, and that was all Rohini could handle to tell anyone right now.
