What is home?

The dark form of a stranger passed deeper into Ebony's territory in front of Kassander's eyes, and the very young king knew he could not allow the stranger to go further without confronting them. He hadn't had any sort of training in fighting having spent all his spare time learning healing instead, but it wasn't his way to attack anyway. He hoped it would never come to that. He took a deep breath and steeled himself to move to block the stranger's way, but before he could the stranger stopped and howled. Instantly Kassander froze, chills racing down him as his auburn pelt prickled. Was that...? Could it be...? ...Sindri? His thought processes stuttered and ground to a halt for a moment in shock. He stepped forward into sight, hesitant, white-tipped ears flopped to the sides and eyes wide. "S-sindri? Is that really you?" Now closer he could see the Xanilov markings against her dark coat, the barely-visible confirmation of her identity. And upon that delicate, dark body... His breath caught at the visible signs of damage to her body, and he could not hold himself back from rushing to her side with a soft cry. His healer's composure was stripped away, any dignity he may have gained vanished, and in their place he stood simply a protective - and terrified - big brother. He shivered, his hackles standing on end. Who... who had done this to her? Healer's oath be damned, he would rip apart the beasts who had hurt her. He didn't touch her, as much as he desperately wanted to curl his body around her and hide her away, but his blue-and-gold gaze drank her in obsessively, his nose quivering as he breathed in a scent he'd been half-convinced was lost to him forever. |
