Ravensblood Forest I'll take your breath away

Set before Viatrix tries to join WGI, because I wanted to post with her!

Leaving Red Rock behind was the easiest hardest thing that Viatrix had ever done. By all accounts, it should have been difficult and heart-wrenching to leave behind the pack mates she had known all her life, but separation anxiety was the furthest thing from the DeMonte gene pool besides unattractiveness. Instead, the svelte bitch had felt nothing but free since departing, not even the faintest hint of homesickness.

Any potential that she might regret her decision was erased when she finally found terrain that wasn't mountains and valleys. Although Teekon Wilds reminded her of home in its interior regions, when she emerged on a dark strand bordering a stormy sea, she couldn't have been further removed from memories of home. Never before had the two year old seen the ocean, yet she felt no compulsion to crash into its waves and roll about like a pup. She, after all, was a well-educated and logical adult who knew that foreign things were best left alone.

Instead, she wandered until she came upon a thin river, and at its bank she stopped to drink deeply, aware by the scent on the wind that there were wolves living in this area, but oblivious to the exact number or just how dangerous they could be.
