They had put off this trip for far too long. The uncertainty of it terrified her, even if she wouldn't admit it out loud - who knew how far her parents had gone? If they had planned to return at all? Some might've been hurt that they'd been abandoned by their parents, and their siblings, but Ara had never been one to hold a grudge. Their journey could last a day, or a month. There was no knowing what sort of journey they had in store. Her features were a picture of solemnity as Novel approached. "My love," she would greet her wife gently, leaning to nuzzle her, with such affection as though she had not seen her in weeks - when it had been but a few hours. "I think it's time to leave." Behind her, her tail would flick nervously at her hocks. She had never gone far from her home, or her family, though she could not imagine leaving without Novel, her strength. "Do you think Psalm and Hymn are around? It wouldn't feel right to not say goodbye." They had been wandering further from home, which both made her proud and saddened at the same time. |
