Bearclaw Valley i'm so depressed, i act like it's my birthday every day

Her steps had carried her farther rather than nearer to the Creek. Still incensed, confused, and rattled by that run-in with the young man, she wandered aimlessly. Every time her thoughts wandered, she thought, This is it. I'm going mad.

Only to wake up the next morning, still whole in body and mind. For now.

Bearclaw Valley. Lilitu saw it emerge from the distance, and felt an immense sense of sorrow come over her. Her sister had been here, once, but she'd come to find the place abandoned.

As she drew closer, though. . .she realized it was anything but.

Her nostrils flared quickly, frantically, trying to take in the mingled scents. She didn't think she smelled Arielle, but then again, it had been some time. Maybe her sister didn't patrol the borders. 

Maybe she was here.

Lilitu sent a questioning call into the sky, trying to keep both hope and fear at bay as she waited for the response.
