nine days. nine days of relentless flight, of stinging cracked and raw pawpads, of the cold gnawing away at what little strength she had left. her once-lean frame was now gaunt, her ribs faint shadows beneath her dull, matted coat. she hadn’t allowed herself to stop—not truly—until now.
the sands stretched around her in eerie silence, swallowing every sound. tamasi finally let herself collapse, her legs giving way as she crumpled into the powder. her chest heaved with ragged breaths, each one visible as it left her lips in weak puffs of steam that rose into the quiet sky.
she didn’t care anymore.
let them find her, whoever they might be.
her body screamed for rest, and her mind could no longer conjure the fear to urge her onward. she lay there, the cold sand seeping into her fur, her amber eyes half-lidded but still faintly glowing with exhaustion. for the first time in days, she let the stillness take her, even if it meant being found.
