A Safe Haven For Them All

Nostalgia had drawn her here once again. These plains had been her home since she was young, since they had fled her birthplace when she was but a child. Part of her hoped she might find some of her missing family here again one day - Chrysanthe, Eos or Preston, or maybe even one of her missing children. It had been far too long since she had seen most of them. Despite the time that had passed, though, it seemed this place hadn't changed. Her blue eyes drifted along the landscape, the flat plains she had known as home for so long.. the only thing that was different, now, was that these lands were vacant. There were no borders marking a claimed territory; there were only vague hints that wolves had passed through recently.
Her dual-colored ears flicked as she searched the sounds in the air, moving slowly and cautiously. There was no reason to feel safe here, though thanks to muscle memory she moved with ease across the various bumps in the terrain. Even some of the trees and shrubs were familiar, little more than memories of a life she had chosen to leave behind long ago. Still she wondered what might have been different had she not chosen Seracia. Perhaps this might still be her home.
A soft rustling in the distance would alert her to the presence of another. Inquisitive eyes would rove her surroundings, searching for the source of the sound, as she crept closer. Only when the female's scent finally hit her did she realize it was Surreal. Feeling her tail begin to sway happily behind her, she would turn slightly to close the distance between them, a smile making its way to her lips. "Surreal," she'd greet her with a dip of her head. "It's a surprise seeing you here."
