Gyrfalcon's Keep Night & morning with my tears

@Qilaq

When Hydra and her sisters had left the Moonspear on their expedition to find her paramour all those weeks ago, Kavos had been left there unaware and uncertain without her presence to guide him. He found no comfort in her parents -- who were otherwise occupied with children he personally wanted nothing to do with -- nor had he found any interest in himself for the remaining members he'd never associated with. Without the duty of the Cerberus to abide by, he found himself wandering again, and it was probably with little surprise to the Ostrega kin that the young wolf had gone from their stead before they had returned from their long excursion to the midlands.

Kavos didn't mind being alone. He ate just as well and felt particularly stressfree without the burden of others weighing upon him -- but the loneliness was not to be abated. And this was by far the most difficult part of his solitude.

At Gyrfalcon's Keep, he found himself remembering things he couldn't possibly care about. The shrieking birds in the late afternoon reminded him of a time he had passed this way with his mother. He remembered his curiosity for the rocky hill ahead, but he'd never been allowed to explore it before and had not seen it since. He saw now what a useless and noisy place it was, and because he held no love for any sharp-beaked bird of prey, Kavos sought to skirt it.
