The Sentinels two verses

All welcome! The wolf she's thinking of is @Aria by the way~ :)

The sun was at its golden and most glorious zenith, but the world beneath was far from it. The great forest that Lucani had so recently called home was stripped of its luscious green, and lay now in a brown-and-grey state of disrepair. Clouds of ugly locusts still flew hither and thither, taking what they could, though the swarm was far less grand and fierce than it had been earlier. It was like a storm receding, leaving behind sheer devastation. Among it all was Lucani, who despite being semi-incapacitated by a weakening illness had not slept for a very long time. She had to do her part for Donnelaith. So although her pace was slow and painful, the tall grey female spent hour after hour storing away remaining medical caches, picking and hiding herbs, and seeking the lost. Heavy in her mind were two thoughts twinned in their intensity. One, a calm determination that would not slow. And two... who was the girl? Just before she'd passed out at the height of the swarm's attack, Lucani had caught a lingering glimpse of a stunning beautiful young female whose image had haunted her ever since. She frowned faintly as she followed the river, curious if the young stranger had even been real. But as she looked out over the battered landscape, she knew at least one thing to be real: her story, in the wake of this disaster, had changed once again.
