Sequoia Coast whether you come as a lover

for reference: he's in the neutral territory between the start of the map & dragoncrest cliffs

the morning is overcast, painting the coast in drab greys and somber blues as anubis makes his way along the coast. he follows the serpentine curving of the shoreline, veering away from the cool frothing waves as they creep up the sands.

sandpipers scuttle along in the wake of the waves, eager for whatever critters lurk beneath the sand.

anubis draws in a deep breath, revealing in the tangy salt of the air, sidestepping around a piece of salt bleach driftwood in his path.

a boy.

she had thought him a proper man at first but he lacked an aged look about him. it was for the best, it made it easier to talk to him than sink teeth in him. strangers near sapphique always caused such an itch.

she would approach, silent for now as she examined him and his path. she was clearly visible to him, but this did not worry her.
