When you're shaking in your bones

OOC: Do something navigationy with my starry lady? I need skill points. Also mostly Iskra just needed to hit 200 posts.


For a bit she wandered every part of Auster other than where Talis once settled. Forever she'd said she wasn't that attached to the pack, and it was true. Mostly true. It wasn't the pack that was on her mind, but the one who ran it. Flopped on her stomach, Iskra was nestled among the gently swaying grasses, head lifted to look up at the sky. The stars were still out, though the sun would rise soon. It was still as beautiful here as she remembered, but the plains felt empty without the smell of pack members laced through it.

When she first arrived, Iskra had thought she smelled Dragon nearby. Now, though, she wondered if it had been her mind playing tricks on her. Didn't matter, she wasn't quite ready to move and possibly face a reunion just yet. Not that she wasn't eager to see her mate, she just... Didn't know. Would if be different, seeing each other after so much time had passed? Did he miss her? For some reason she had a lump in her throat at the idea of facing him. Maybe it was because she didn't really accomplish a ton in their time apart. Maybe she was just still figuring out what relationships were even supposed to be. It all had her head spinning, so she laid her head down on her paws and sighed heavily.
