Fading Mist

Quote:

This was a territory that she had not visited before, but her mother had decided to claim for Valhalla. The mist that rolled through the area seemed to be never ending, but at this part of the day it had lightened up enough to see a few yards in front of her. The woman wanted to get more familiar with all of the land that Valhalla now consisted of - the last thing that they needed was to get taken by surprise by any sort of enemy pack. She also found comfort in the bit of exploration it took to call these territories home - wandering was something that as a yearling Chrysanthe had done a lot of, but that was the first thing that was given up once she became a beta and then an alpha. Now it seemed that she could have both, and it gave the woman something to do.



Yet she would not wander alone anymore.



The russet faced woman would pause, her ears high atop her head as she searched the area for her daughter. The girl was not the sort to be tamed - something that she would find out more and more as she aged - but she had pulled a bit ahead of their little scouting session. Chrysanthe was on her trail still, but the young female was now out of her sight, and she would sigh, a smile on her face as she quickened her pace while being careful of her footing. That blind spot had rendered her occasionally clumsy, but she did her best to hide it by being a little extra cautious.



"The fog should clear up for a little while soon." But once night rolled in it would thicken up again, and she and her daughter would be stuck in the low hanging cloud. "See anything up ahead?" She would speak loudly so that Odette could hear her even if she was ahead of her, but hopefully it wouldn't carry in a way that would disturb whatever prey was already living here.
