No.
NO NO!
It couldn't be that she was all alone.
Never had she been more afraid in her life, not even when the sharp-clawed monster had plucked Larus out of the ground of their own home, she had not seen his chubby figure clenched upon the lynx jaws, he had not seen the worst of it. She had stared at the feline straight in the eye but that didn't even compare to the monster she was facing now.
Solitude.
The barren enviroment of the Glacier got colder without Tuwawi's flame to ignite it and warm it up. Maera was a simple candle next to her, a candle, whose spirit was blown out by the harsh winds of reality. She was alone.
Completely and utterly alone in the place they had claimed to be their home.
And what a home did it turn our to be.
With her shivering form still coiled up against the floor, Maera finally allowed tears to come streaming down her cheeks and into the dirt. While she sobbed she felt a strange disconnection of her limbs from her body. Then fearing that she too would disappear into thin air as her beloved siblings and mother had she jumped to her feet, jagged breaths cutting through the air as she looked down at her feet.
She was still here.
With a choked whine of relief she took off running, hoping that she could escape the oblivion that had engulfed her relatives whole. If she must disappear there was only one place she'd like to do it in.
Her paws moved almost mechanically to the beat of her racing heart, taking her to the place she had taken as refuge during the crash and burn of the Sveijarn family.
