The Ooze Participant

The southern continent was utterly foreign to her. Slowly she had traveled, down the eastern coastline, finding herself surprised when a massive sand-bridge that had seemingly appeared out of nowhere. Perhaps her memories of this place were hazy, but she felt like something drastic had changed as she journeyed further south. Her senses were heightened as her paws led her over the sand, taking in the shimmering shore with a slight sense of wonder that she rarely felt these days. The landscape would change as she traversed these new lands, the vast expanse of sand slowly morphing into woodlands as trees sprouted here and there. Soon she was surrounded by the impossibly tall oaks, looming high overhead. They seemed ancient somehow, their bark covered in thick moss that must've taken years to form.

The land was significantly warmer here, though she was farther from familiar lands than she preferred; it would take her days to return to the general area she considered home, though she called no particular place home. The warmth on her back was pleasant and she found herself relaxing as she wandered, weaving effortlessly through the trunks of the massive oak trees. Only when the scent of another reached her nostrils did her posture stiffen slightly, slowing her pace to focus her attention on whoever might be nearby.

The woman's features took her by surprise. Though slightly larger than herself, her pelt was a flawless white, though her markings stood out quite vividly in contrast to the alabaster fur. Hadn't she seen this woman before? Epiphron felt her stomach sink as she drew a bit nearer, mind suddenly clouded with emotion she could not place. "I have met you before," she would call out, her voice somewhat unsure, scrutinizing Roman silently as she drew a bit nearer.
