This strange place was just one of many that these lands that perhaps harbored her brother seemed to contain. Serra wasn't sure how close Quelt was, but she knew that she wasn't going to find him if she didn't explore. She couldn't imagine her brother in these caves, but Serra was determined to look. She had left her home to find him, left without telling her other siblings goodbye. That had smarter, to say the lest. Serra adored them enough that she had disliked leaving them almost as much as she had disliked Quelt being gone. But without Quelt, Serra was lost. He had been the one she was closest to, and Serra knew that her family could never be complete without him. He could have been King one day, and Serra would have been content to be his second in command, his Duchess beneath his Queen. That was the way things should have been. But Quelt had left and so Serra had followed, determined to bring him back to her family. They needed him. Slate gray ears swivelled as Serra sniffed the air cautiously. A confusing scent drifted under her nose - a wolf, that was for sure, but the musky cavern's scent overpowered that of the wolf. It certainly wasn't Quelt, Serra realized almost immediately, making her breathe a soft sigh. But perhaps this wolf had seen Quelt - and this was the first time since her arrival here that she had scented another wolf nearby. There had been stale scents before, but this was fresh - there was a wolf just ahead in the darkness. Though the utter blackness of the cave was daunting, Serra was determined to find out if this wolf had seen her brother. So she took a deep breath, and padded into the darkness. "Hello?" Serra called out curiously, eyes straining to see in the darkness. "Is there anyone in here?" Serra did her best to scan the surrounding area, but the darkness made it hard to see anything. Would the mysterious wolf answer her? Speech, |
