So much had happened, she wasn't sure to make out of it. First Isar had found her and told her Eris, her dear sweet mother, had passed away. He gave no details as to how or why it happened. But then again he seemed to think she had already known as he had simple just apologized for her loss. She never let on to show she hadn't known and remained neutral. Neutral was the best way to be around her father. Even as he challenged for her claim. She knew how to whisper soothing words to him, to wind her way around his paws, into his good graces. But that day had killed her from the inside out. Yes she told him of her ambitions, yes the mentioned a possible training to obtain such goals and glory. But unlike her father she had not wanting it through bloodshed and terror. No and wanted more tactical skills of obtaining high ranks and a pack and keeping it. She was starving with ambition, a trait that had to be from her father, all her other siblings for the most part seemed the same way. But then the challenge against her father came. Something she knew from the time that howl from the half skull male, this would not be a good outcome. She had stood there watching till it ended, only to watch the only other parental figure slip away from her life. His pack disbanded, split and scattered. It seemed he challenge for her from Abaven was wasted on both him and her. She walked away that day, lost and swallowed up in the black wave of grief as she finally let it take her. She wondered the north, staying close to Bevroren near her brother but refusing to let him see her in such a state. But it was Quelt, the male who confessed his love for her who found her. She had thought he would have lost hope for them, but found he had been fighting for her each and every day since she left Abaven. Which now left her here, under ground in the mines, curled up in a ball within the den they shared. She had not spoken much, if only but a few words. She just couldn't shake this sorrow out of her chest. All she kept seeing was her mother, each time a different death, each time she wasn't there for her. She felt she had let her mother down, angry she had not been there for her, pissed at herself for not visiting more. If she had known, she could have been there, Eris could still be alive. But alas she was not. Quelt's howl echoed with the mines, making her head lift up. He had said she didn't need to come unless she felt up to it. He knew she was ill to some degree, but she never spoke words as to what illed her. Blinking her vivid amber eyes she struggled to her paws, body stiff from being in one position for so long. Quelt needed her support, she was his mate after all. It was the least for could do for him after all. Plus she could not deny she was interesting in who all did make up this pack they ruled together. She stopped in her tacks. They ruled a pack, together, side by side. How ironic life could be. When she was a pup she had promised it would be her and her two brother, Ky and Riv. She shook her head sadly before hurry to catch up to Quelt, she wanted to be there for when the first arrived. When she reached him she would brush against his shoulder to sit there and lean into him. Amber eyes turned to look up at him as the sorrow vanished from them and was locked away for the time being. Only Quelt would see her grieve, no one else, she wouldn't allow it. |
