Nova Peak Savage Daughter

It was not in Riley’s nature to be obsessive, but as the darkness settled in and the spot she’d shown him remained empty, Riley began to wonder.

He traced down her scent and tracked her to a realm outside of the Rise. Wondering if she’d gotten hurt or worse given Avicus’ recent demise, Riley found his heart rate spiking as he climbed up a rough crag.

He did not recognize this area, but Masquerade’s scent grew stronger. Out of the corner of his eye he spotted a silhouette peering at the skies ahead. She was resting on a ledge, where the sky seemed to round out around her — the silver of her fur etched ever so softly in moongleam.

He approached with head low and tail wagging, an inquisitive expression on his face that conveyed concern.
