Start Again

*Eostre* · 06-07-2014, 05:56 AM

Tail tucked down, ginger ears flattened to the side pitifully, Eostre had been on the edge of tears the entire weary trip. She'd been snatched away from everything she'd known, away from a mother who admittedly cared nothing for them and littermates who had been too far from the entrance of the den for the three strangers to snatch up as they made their escape from her maybe-father and her uncle. Now they were straggling their way into this strange place, minus the big white one who had disappeared in the night before they had even crossed Vili's border. She had been terrified of all three of the males who professed to be her half-brothers, Hroovitnir's sons who had left before she'd been born. Bera and Arnporr seemed wary of them, which frightened her even more. Bera was so brave so if she were scared that meant there was truly something to be frightened of.

Now apparently they were "here", this plain place their new home and she began to cry in earnest, silently as she huddled miserably in on herself, pressing into Bera's shoulder. What was going to happen to them now? She could barely bring herself to listen to Arnporr's demanding questions, both admiring and shocked that she had the will to be so defiant and bold despite the starvation and abuse and disease they had all grown up in. She herself did nothing but shiver and sob silently at Bera's side, clinging to her earless littermate like a lifeline in this turmoil of strange things.

The sudden appearance of an exuberant pup did little to assuage her fear, despite his obviously well-fed and healthy appearance. No, the addition of more wolves to the situation simply increased the shy pup's anxiety, and she hid her wet face in the sturdier Bera's ruff fearfully.
