Freedom!

Navigation: Nephilim Island

The second Gale knew her heat had finally passed, she ran. At first just racing beyond Donostrea's borders had been enough; she had been eyeing the lands that bordered her home for so long that she thought she could describe each one of them in excessive detail and perhaps even guide someone across them without following along. It felt wonderful to finally set herself free and venture somewhere that was new and fun, particularly someplace that had not turned into something akin to a prison when it should have been a home. Not that she was complaining about the Elementas family's seaside retreat, but...she was the wind. She needed the freedom to go where she wanted.

So she was off again. Instead of traveling north or east, she had chosen west, which might have been a foolish endeavor considering west meant out into the ocean. The lavender-marked wolf might not have been the strongest swimmer, but that did not stop her from charging out into the water with her sights set on another sliver of land further out from shore. The pull of the water worked in her favor, drawing her out, but it took more effort than anticipated to steer herself to the island and not out to sea. It was probably a really poor decision to make, venturing this way alone, but surrounded by water with nowhere to go but her currently set destination it was far too late to reconsider.

By the time she reached the sandy white shoreline, she was exhausted. Her breath came in in heavy pants, her tongue lolled from her opened jaws, and her legs felt weak. She barely managed to drag herself clear of the water before she slumped down onto the shoreline and stretched out, letting the cool marine air chill her body beneath her soaked through coat of white, grey, and lavender fur. At least she had made it she thought as she glanced around her at what she could see of the island. But exploring it could wait a minute. She needed her legs to not feel like they would give out underneath her if she attempted even one step.
