It had been a prolonged journey that had guided them here. Where, exactly, they had no clue - they hadn't stopped to enquire, nor did they care. Two silhouettes, made black by elongated shadows, pacing swiftly across the land in search of a place to call home. Little conversation was made, but they felt calm within one another's familiar presence.
The sun was settling beyond the horizon as the pair strode through the foliage, streaks of vibrant orange painting the sky - it was a dazzling sight, and although he kept a stern face, Altair's eyes glimmered as he stopped to observe. The young, star-pelted man had witnessed dozens of sunsets before, and this one in particular was no more special than the last, but it was beautiful nonetheless. His sallow gaze travelled idly to Kalyca's features, noting how the shades of vermillion and yellow highlighted her face amongst the tangerine glow. A soft breath left his muzzle as he stared at her, but after another heartbeat he turned back to watch the forest road they travelled as it passed under his paws.
The weight of being in a foreign location was a feeling that he had grown familiar with, but it never failed to keep the resplendent Tsitak on his toes - in the secluded home they'd once known (even now, he thought it best not to dwell on the memory of the fallen kingdom), they had no issue with trecherous encounters of any sort, but out here in the wilderness, who knew what beasts lurked in the darkness?
"Do we keep walking, or settle for the night?" He mumbled, tail flicking gently at his hind.
