Wild Berry Meadow dread doctor

A speck of gold was she upon the green seas of summer grasses - lost within the wavering heights that reached ever upwards to the sky. 

A prickling discomfort curdled beneath her flesh, setting over-long ears to pin fitfully against the slender curve of her skull and lending hesitance to the soft tread of snow-dipped paws. It was borne of the abandonment of the trees which provided some notion of security. 

Any might find her within the steppes and she would not see them coming. 

Twilight was oncoming, heralding the night that would soon sweep over Teekon and plunge it into pitch. Rosy pinks and soft blues that reminded her of @Sherigrim's gentle gaze collided overhead - a soft purple produced like that of the most beautiful bruise, left by the frenzied touch of a lover. 

The first stars had appeared, contested by the glow of a sun over the horizon that would soon dip beyond to the places where wolves could not go. 

Elve found herself stopping amongst the cool blades of grass, expression and posture turned towards the fiery orb - lost. 

If they had truly cast death upon her, why was she still wandering? Why had she not been admitted to the lands of the unknown and unseen? 

"What do you want of me?" Elve addressed the gods in a rasp of emotion, a plea, a prayer, a beg for answers. 

She had given all. Obedience, worship, effort, love.

They had taken everything, even Laisse. 

And now they doomed her to roam, unable to make sense of their mutterings.

For a moment, she hung suspended in wait - poised as if on the precipice of some void. 

But the spirits remained withdrawn. They too had turned away from the besmirching of Sapmi, from the wolfdog's fall from grace - if ever her existence could be considered to be held in such a light. 

Only the wind answered, stirring the grasses so that they tickled against her eyelids - which had fallen shut with her refusal to grieve. 

It was quickly approaching nightfall by the time Elve summoned the will to continue on, filled to the brim with weariness as she searched for somewhere to make her bed for the night.

hope you don't mind Elve (she's also into stars despite being a bit morose rn) sorry for the novel (tags for visibility/reference)
