The Sentinels I looked up to the stars above, to find you once again

i cant stop but maybe a wild @Eilidh

the cub had only awoken for a moment when her father kissed her brow in his goodbye, and then fell back to her blissful dreams. deirdre slept well now that her sister was sick no longer, having been quite restless up until the day she could velcro herself to emaleth's side again. she slept fitfully once more, and her spirits were rejuvenated.

hours later, the youngest mayfair woke again. she detached herself from emaleth but did not try to wake her as she usually would. instead she simply sprinted toward the Otherworlds door and squinted at it, looking at the footprints her father left in his wake. there were dozens like it at this threshold, and she hadn't any idea which were fresh and which were not.

there was no telling what made her do what she did next, really. but deirdre missed her father greatly in the short span of time he had left, so the cub took it upon herself to retrieve him. were it not wintertime her dallying outside would not be such a bad thing, but it was!, and she meandered only just beyond the warmth of their abode now. a plethora of scents distracted her, and so the babe did not go very far at all from home. in fact, she got nowhere at all! but the scent here was familiar, very much like the man she loved, and deirdre pawed at it. it was a concentrated area, but he was not there!

well, for whatever reason, deirdre desired her father then and there. as he did not appear as she would have him do before her very eyes in this very moment, she felt unsettled, and so began to cry. nature stirred around her in her fit, the trees convening with one another before a breeze came and wrapped around her, a comforting thing but thoughtlessly done as she shivered.
