Larksong Grotto Memories of a distant past

@Skeet Tada. It's time to meet Aspen. XD She's not sleeping, just resting her eyes. Or she has them closed cuz shes thinking. Just thought I'd note that. 

It was evident spring was finally here, the snow was melting and the flowers were beginning to bloom. They were popping up everywhere lately. The weather had finally began to warm up the only downside was all the rain they seemed to be getting. They don't call it April showers for nothing. It had been raining on and off over the past couple days but nothing major, not like the evening Aspen joined the ranks of the wolves here at Larksong. 

It was early morning and Aspen had been awake long before dawn. Unfortunately for her, but thats just the way her mind wanted to play it. Before embarking on her morning patrol Aspen decided she would head down to the lake for some quiet times while most of the forest still slept.

Aspen frequently found herself near the lake or in it. It was a very relaxing place, she would come here to think or to sometimes go for a swim. This morning it was more to think, daydream. She had a lot on her mind lately and hadn't really been sleeping all that well. Her mind torturing her with memories from her dark and distant past. Aspen lay down at the shores and put her head down on the ground letting out a big sigh. She listened to the sound of the water, a sort of eerie silence at the moment, but it didn't bother her. It wasn't long before she had closed her eyes and let her mind wander.
