Dawn-lit wandering had drawn her to the taiga, fur snow-dusted and bones aching from the cold. Valley stretched beneath her, pale expanse drawing her gaze but she did not delve into it yet. She settled on the ridge, standing against a backdrop of rose and gold as the sun rose from behind tall, star-piercing mountains.
Foggy breath slipped from between dark lips. A sigh -- not of relief, for her wandering was never finished. She was always a lone wolf. Lost, wandering through a world which never seemed to cease stretching out before her. There was a time she had not been lost as she was now, stood side by side with other wolves -- no more, they had been lost to flame and burned to ash. Misty eyes watched as sunlight spread across the snow, glittering like diamonds beneath where she was perched on the ridge.
Svetlana attempted to find a tree to rest beneath, hoping the snow to be thinner beneath it so that she would not have to rest amidst the cold. To no avail, though, because wherever she went it was cold and her teeth came close to chattering.
