Sun Mote Copse Fabric of time

@Towhee 

Wraen did not do in the hot weather well. She was most active around dawn, spent the majority of her day in one of her secret hiding places and then went out for a second round at dusk. She found that she enjoyed these moments of solitude and oneness with her surroundings and not for the first time recently she mused, what if she let herself be persuaded by Maia and leave everything behind to head into the unknown. 

More aware than before she was of the passing time - it was her fourth year already, she was half-way through the lifespan that had been given to her on this Earth. And this made her wonder, whether Firebirds were here final destination, where she would grow old and eventually her mound would join those of others in the little graveyard. Or was there more to life, more for her to do and learn. All she needed to do was to make that first step and find out. 

Yet she was hesitant - the wisdom that came with old age and comforts that she was used to and which she did not want to change for the unpredictable life on the road. Not yet anyway. With all this on her mind, Wraen's path led to the rendezvous site, where Towhee and the rest of the group had recently relocated. She was not particularly looking forward to playing a nanny to the four kids, but she did feel that there was time and place for a conversation with her fellow leader.
