Whatever future she had once envisioned had all but been shattered when her father had left; he had been plagued by sickness for some time, but then he had simply disappeared as though he was naught but a ghost. Lysis hadn't formulated much of a future at all -- she'd never expected her departure from the northern part of Alacritia to be permanent, and she certainly had not considered a life away from the Armada family. Something new was forming now in her heart as she gazed at Kyarst. The air held a very subtle iron smell, from the brief bite she'd inflicted upon him. She laughed as he visibly tensed at her approach again, a light sound that filled the air with sudden childlike joy, despite the intensity of her hazel stare. She smiled at the contact between the two of them. It reminded her of when they'd been younger, far more innocent than now; those days seemed so long ago. A soft sigh would fall from her velvety lips at the mention of their former packlands being inhabited by others, and she found herself shrugging slowly. "I don't have a clue, and don't really care to," she said with an irritated shake of her head. If it was not the Armadas ruling in the north, was there any reason to care? The north belonged to her father and to her family, and it felt wrong to know that others believed they were deserving of their home -- their birthplace. "Will you join Roman and Drashiel?" Lysis would interject then, a question weighing heavily on her mind. She'd much prefer to be ruled under her own litter-mate and Roman, rather than most of her other half-siblings.... but what did Kyarst thing? Still she felt some animosity toward Drashiel for effectively abandoning her, too, but she missed him far more than anything else she might feel toward him. "They surprised me," she'd comment conversationally, finally relaxing enough to settle to her haunches before Kyarst, searching his features and trying to gauge his own feelings before he spoke. "I didn't really... expect them to be a thing." |
