Blacktail Deer Plateau and thereby open wide the door

Atticus was gone, it was as if the she wolf was walking around in a stupor. It took moments for the words of most to penetrate the fog that had covered her brain. This was all just too much, entirely too much. It had been mere weeks since her father had died, that her best friend had left her. Then not even days later his brother, her intended was also gone.

Blue did not blame anyone, but herself. She should have watched him closer. Should have checked on him more. What if he thought she did not want him anymore? She had been so dang busy, and it took so much for him to understand. She should have tried to show him better that she needed and wanted him near. She sighed softly to herself as she walked the borders working so very hard to catch a sliver of a scent. Just something small to know he was still among them. She had even entertained the thought that he had left her to die, surely not though he would have told her. Let her say goodbye?

Finally, she could take no more steps for the time being and she sat down quietly at the edge of a clearing and just looked out over it. As she watched she heard shuffling and snuffling and turned green eyed gaze to catch her friends form as he dashed like a mad beast with nose to the ground. She chuffed gently at him let him know she was there.
