Stavanger Bay On a stormy sea of moving emotion

@Orochi if he's around and you want first dibs!

 What could have been the last moments of her life brought her coughing and heaving on the shores of the bay. The thoughts of her boys being left in a time of great loss and danger that stuck with her from the moments she had washed up far off from the wilds. It had taken word of mouth and a plunge of faith to bring her back and though her limbs shook with exhaustion and her pelt was weighed down by the sea water she forced herself to start the trek through the wilds her weary, stinging eyes looking around her for some sort of clue as to what direction to head. Nose lifted to be breeze she inhaled, smelling bark and moss and other signs of forest life that had her quickening her pace till she saw the first signs of treeline and made her way to the shade they offered. Sitting down she leaned against the sturdy bark, ears twitching at the birdsong and rustling brush around her watching her own back as she took a rest she was embarrassed she even needed. 

As she smacked into the water pieces of the Rocky cliff began to rain down hitting her and knocking her down into the depths, stunned she floated at the mercy of the waves choking as she rose above the surface and was sucked back down. The awareness of what was happening wasn't as terrifying, she was sure that she was drowning. She hoped that Deku and Orochi learned to get along. The thought stirred a panic and she kicked against the current, fighting to get back for a few minutes before passing out.


A twig snapping brought her out of her memories and she looked around with a  shiver, turning to groom at her pelt and cringing at the salty sea water taste in her mouth. The weather was warm already, she figured the season for pups was around though her own had stayed away thus far. The worry she wouldn't bear children again was also why she was determined to find her sons, a find memory of Takara bringing a hitch to her breath as she finished grooming and stood up walking at an easier pace as she trekked deeper into the wilds.
