OOC: Outside the borders.
Despite how long it had been since she walked the familiar flatlands, it was not too long of a time for her to forget the way to the Plateau. Overtime, she had noticed the absence of an elated individual in her life. His sunny disposition missed and strange mannerisms desired if only to bring a genuine smile to her face. He was perhaps the only male friend she had made in the wilds that impacted her so profoundly… even without him knowing. And it did not sit well that she hadn’t seen him for so long. Regardless of her tasks in the Vale, it was no excuse for her negligence to their friendship.
She had set out quite early in the hopes of reaching the Plateau in the afternoon. Along the way, she captured a small morsel as an offering, as was now her ritual when seeking a positive encounter with those known. And even unknown, if the fates permitted.
The scent of the woodlands was as stark as she remembered. The trees still looming with soundless diligence to cast upon the traveling soul their ominous shadows. It was with a subtle bound to her step that she approached the border with small badger in maw. Settling beside a cluster of rocks, she placed the offering at her feet then raised her head in summons for a wolf to greet her. |
