Astrid was not pleased. Summer heat, summer storms, and now it was nearly winter. Where had the time gone? It had been madness there for a while, and now she was hearing talk of lands discovered down south. She wondered if that was where her damned family had gotten off to. Honestly, it should not be this hard to find just one of such a large band of morons. She cursed under her breath, brilliant emerald eyes narrowing to slits. She just want to find her freaking brother and sisters. Even an uncle would do, if she was being completely honest. She stopped her trek through the marshy soil and looked up as a flock of some fowl or another flew over head. That's what she needed, some sort of avian. It couldn't be that hard to extort something with such brittle bones, and she'd heard the eyesight of raptors was excellent. But, she admitted at last, it was most likely folly. The time and effort that would be required to even capture a winged creature was ridiculous. She navigated her pale paws to a dry-ish piece of land and allowed herself a short rest, mostly surrounded by reeds and scrub. She ought to find a few minutes shut eye undisturbed here, or so she thought. |
