Blacktail Deer Plateau Take some Time for me

Blue Willow was tired and her fur was filthy. She snorted at herself in disgust. Way to go girl getting yourself all ragged and cattywampus. You will do no one any good if you is dead. She repeated the words her father had often said to her. How she missed that man and his words of wisdom. She had never been relatively close to her mother, but her father had been her best friend.

She began to groom the sorry shape of her pelt and found a particular large knot. As she worried it between her teeth tears sprang to her eyes as she couldn't quite get it and it hurt. Oh dash it all. She murmured to herself, she lay her head down on her paws wishing for a moment she had her mother here to get the knot and soothe the hurt. She decided perhaps a nap was in order, maybe it would come undone afterwards.

She lay and watched the fluffy clouds in the sky with green eyed gaze. Her mind wandering to years of walking and stories and she spoke to herself. Once upon a time a long time ago there lived a wolf princess. Her voice began to fade as she drifted off to sleep on the hill overlooking the plains down below, her paws weary and her mind quiet.
