Moonspear The Creature From the Black Lagoon

Rain drizzled down from the skies, a perpetual thing in these lands, it seemed. Perhaps it was miserable to some, but for Keres, it was simply a hurdle to jump, or rather slog through in this case. She was a wolf on a mission, hunting down the family she sought to reunite with. It had been ages since she'd seen them, since she'd gotten to be surrounded by those she cared for. After the kids had all left the nest and her mate had passed on, Keres got up and carried on, the way she always had.

All she knew was they had better appreciate her efforts. Grey fur had turned brown with dirt and mud, her limbs somewhat caked in it as the currently gentle rain did nothing to help her stay clean. If anything, it made it worse as she had wandered from the Northeast, towards more mountainous terrain that was sure to be less muddy.
