AW, but looking specifically for @Reigi and/or @Coelacanth
It seemed like each and every search mission she undertook was destined to fail. And while this was hyperbole, considering the girl had only embarked on no less than a handful of said quests, that did nothing to alleviate the sorrow that hung over her as she crossed the sandbar. Past the rotting seal, decayed in the sun. Over the sand, unchanged since she last touched it.
Finally, she found herself on the island again, and made her way to the treeline--out of the sun, which burned down upon her, searing her to the marrow. Only when she was in the shade did she let her guard down, and she placed her muzzle on her paws, staring blank and straight ahead. It was a mirror image of when she had rested here after finding Vaati--and she was even more miserable now than she had been, then.
Mou was gone. Ramsay and Euron had slipped away once again.
Her only comfort was the bird. Maegi had formed a sort of kinship with him, over the past few days, and the bond was solidified further as he crossed over to the isle with her. Now he meandered around close by her side, pecking at the unfamiliar fruits of this new home. His antics brought the barest of smiles to her face. She had named him Blue, for his head. Simple--a childlike name--but memorable.
