Moonspear And, then, there was light

Dash had spent several days in the darkness of his den, only coming out after the sun had gone down, and even then he never went very far. He almost feared to hope that it was getting better, but as the days passed, things became less blurry and little clearer. He was indeed, improving. It was late in the day, and the sun had fallen to the treeline, casting shadows all about. Dash took a chance and made his way out, squinting his eyes against the light, fearing it would hurt to be out in the light, even if it wasn't direct.

As he slowly opened them, he realized the pain didn't come. He glanced around, and let out a breath he hadn't realized he was holding in. He could definitely see. His vision was still blurry, but nothing like it was. He could make out the bushes around him, their colors, and the trees. A bird flew by and he tried to follow it with his eyes as it darted around. Instantly, he seemed to get a headache and he shut his eyes again. He hadn't realized trying to follow something so quickly could hurt. After a few moments, he opened them again, sticking to looking at stationary objects instead of anything moving. His tail wagged as he sat back on his haunches, and simply looked.
