Along the Shoreline

*Raisa* · 02-14-2014, 04:14 PM

The woods had whispered with glad tidings. Snippets of information here, a hastily spread rumor there, and all had brought the ebony queen northward. If the tales could be believed, Amenti was ruled under a new name, and one Raisa counted as familiar. Perhaps once she would envy the woman, or begrudge her good luck, but today she could not find it within her now. They had met only once before, a chance encounter on a warm afternoon, but the impression had lingered yet. Raisa found herself fascinated by the one wolf she had met thus far in her travels that she had been able to consider her equal. It was not like her to hold on to such things, but once she'd caught wind that Virgil had achieved their shared dream, she could not help but venture forth and seek her out. She had left Koros behind with Fugue and Kaliska, knowing that her steward would be safer among the kindling of her own pack, with the promise that she would not be more than a fortnight away.

Raisa stood now on a rise overlooking a beach of obsidian sand. Iron waves crashed against the coastline and the sky above was obscured from view. The sun, if instinct proved correct, should be nigh on set. Raisa took a deep breath, enjoying the way the salt air played across her palette. With the exhale, she tilted her head up and let loose a relatively quiet howl, announcing her presence. Could it be that she felt a bit self conscious seeking out a wolf she barely knew? Perhaps. They had not agreed on any binding terms of friendship, not even close. Perhaps Virgil would take it amiss to find her here? For a split second, the queen doubted her intentions, but steeled herself soon after. If Virgil didn't want her here, well... Well then too bad! She could deal with it! If the heir and Queen of the Ebony throne wanted to stop in, gods be damned if she wouldn't. With a steelish set to her face (and, despite her pep talk, indecisiveness in her stomach,) she awaited a response.
