Deepwood Weald pagophilus

set during the week of june 9th-15th, before this!

the time for cen to visit and sweep her away from this place and its shadows, came, and went, and he did not arrive.

sulukinak felt herself hollowed out by his absence.

it was not because of any true attachment, but a sense of abandonment which she had forgotten the taste of; and now that she waited among the trees for any sight or scent of him, she felt it keenly.

she paced and called for @Dutch and if he should come to her summons, he would find her circling a stump with a sort of agitated energy, unsure of what to do with herself.
