Ravensblood Forest the long rain

@Skellige

It's been a while =D This is a bit before her actual appearance timeline wise so would it be ok to smudge the timeline a bit? If not I'll delete this!

She had wandered too far in this time of thunder and rain; it was at the moment she felt the tickle of wishing to return home that the bottoms of each cloud gave way and pelted her with their contents. Too late she surmised to herself as the earth began turning to mush beneath her. It would only push her to dangerous fields of exhaustion should she try to stubbornly navigate her way back...and she doubted Aaron would appreciate news of his sister being found once again half dead at the borders.
 
A hard looking woman strolled past her without exchange and slipped into the darkness of the trees beyond her. Startled by the sudden apparition she watched the foliage with wary eyes...but it was the flicker of movement before her that finally severed her attentive watch of the neverland.
 
She ceased walking and looked upon the inky wraith that was not entirely unfamiliar looking. He was reminiscent of dear Marcus before he took an oath with the locusts that had brought the hell upon them; the general appearance of Skellige was disconcerting and frightful but she felt a thin sense of nostalgic calm through the burning embers of his uninterested stare.
 
Despite the rain and despite the clear aura of Fuck off he gave Emily's confidence remained unwavering. She held close the memories of Marcus and blurred the details of him into the stranger's presence...the likes of which promised her a distraction from the insufferable rain pounding on their backs. "Friend of yours?" she inquired with a slight cant of her cheek toward the unknown she wolf's last whereabouts.
