It wasn't long before an eerie shape began to materialize from the dusky shadows of the forest. Her first glance, and breath, told her that this was a female and also wrong somehow; from the hobble, to the soft whines, and the complete lack of something... it only became clear when Saena fully revealed herself, standing tall and pricking those odd russet ears forward. The shadows beneath her eyes weren't shadows at all, but the same vibrant color as her ears. But, more importantly, this woman was clearly ailing from a few serious wounds. She was missing her entire TAIL for God's sake!

Juniper sucked in another breath and, "Holy hell." She blinked rapidly, immediately flattened her ears and lowered her head in a typically submissive stance, "Gods above, sorry, I don't know what--er." She whined for lack of anything better to say or do until she could find her voice again. "I'm sorry, I just was... surprised, is all, uh. Do you need help?" She settles on, only to realize just how pretentious that sounded. She ziped her lips with a soft click of teeth against teeth.
