Ouroboros Spine Although forewarned by peers and kin

This is set AFTER my thread with Nyra. With permission from both Nyra and Xynos, so War is joining (a little late). Apologies the timelines are wonky.

War didn't know how to handle emotions too well, not even the happy kind. Nyra had embraced her love, returned it? War was so confused, yet so happy. She had followed Nyra from afar, waited for Xynos to walk Nyra across the land and War trailed behind to make sure they were not followed. She knew others were looking for them, Nyra was a wanted woman, and they were not safe anywhere yet. War was careful now, she had to be, this was the life she had chosen, because she had chosen Nyra.

She left everything else behind and soon enough she joined Nyra and Xynos, to find they had already been greeted. War stepped up next to Nyra, not liking the way she submitted to these people, but War had to remind herself they came here in exile, looking for help. It wasn't good for them to be making demands. War looked at Nyra and leaned against her, licked her forehead to clean her from blood. She didn't like this.

Her stone grey eyes looked at the individuals there, warning in her eyes. She would defend Nyra to the death if she had to, if they choose to chase them away she would simply follow Nyra to lead her to a different place where they could rest, heal. War kept her eyes onto those in front of them, but an ear was pointed to the way they had come to ensure no one would sneak up on them either. She was cautious.

Nyra spoke to what War could only assume was the alpha, she spoke of the blade she had wielded and War stayed silent. She had never seen ill intend on Nyra before, she didn't know what she spoke of and neither did it matter anymore. The past did not dim the feelings War had in the present, which was all that mattered to her.  To War, Nyra was her queen.
