Silverlight Terrace Just One Wish

@Sialuk

A never ending night sky stretched out far above her. Faded from dark ink to pitch black. Countless stars spread out, some bright, some faint. A slight silver of a pale moon. Even with all this simple beauty nature offered this night, Elentari was un-acknowledging of it. Her mind was elsewhere. Closer to the earth...to the land around her.

She was a newcomer. A lone wolf whose scent and looks no native would recognize. But her surname, maybe. The Archer name was well known in lands far and wide. But she was not concerned with making herself prevalent so early.

Something greater pressed her this evening. Forcing her attention away from the quiet embrace of the valley. A deep ache made it's home in her left hind leg. Gnawing at the tendons and deep muscle. She knew it well. An old injury, sustained long ago. This was just another nuisance flare up, aggravated by the cold. 

Her jaw set firm, she scoured the ground carefully. Wracking her brain while she tried to search for signs of any herbs she had been educated about.
