Ocean's Breath Plateau Somewhere in Kingston

The cliffs beyond the pack's borders were tall. There, the ocean stole her breath away, pushed her frail frame, whipped the curling fur until her skin was exposed with every gust. She stood as close to the edge of the cliffs as she dared, looking down into the lashing waves below; they shattered against the rocks. The sound of it made her shudder- and turn inland, where temptations voice was tempered. 

She knew she should spend time with her children, reassure them that their father would come back...But she found it difficult to bring herself to do so. In their faces, she saw sadness. In their faces, she saw traces of the man she had loved, and lost. Try as she might to give them a smile and mean it, it was becoming impossible to do so. 

She wandered, lonely and listless; the pounding of waves echoing in her ears.
