And so the shadow returned, her paws carrying her north from Ichorwood's reaches until the grass turned to rock and sand. She'd let her paws drag through the light dusty grains, a small rut of a trail leading out behind her. Kei wasn't concerned with someone following or finding her, actually, she wasn't sure why she was here at all.
Maybe it was for her friend, the one that grounded her despite the distance. It took her mind off of Sybil, to how life had been before her adopted sister entered the picture. Even here, amongst the beach and distance rock. It was an island, but the structure of the rocks reminded her of her mountains. Deep in color and jagged though past the outside was a lush and vibrant land.
The shadow stood from the shoreline, watching as the tide pulled back, retreating with the early moon. It seemed fall would be here soon if the tide was growing low in the afternoon, but she would not complain as she picked at shells and rocks half-buried in the ghostly remains of the sea. Every day that passed she found herself more and more tempted to leave. Perhaps she already had. There had been nothing wrong with the celestial pack, but it had always felt temporary.
