Though the arrival of the summer solstice had brought warmer weather and longer days, Clover often found comfort in the stillness of the night. Though she was no longer spending her nights in the bedroom of the mansion, she did not feel displaced or homesick at all. In fact, the young Lykoi felt completely at peace here, in the Kingdom of the handsome, brooding Thistle King. Even now, in relative solitude, a soft smile found her maw at the thought of the Revlis man. He had succeeded in luring Clover away from Inferni, but she saw it nothing more than freedom; she had been given the space to spread her wings.
Though it was little over half full, the moon was able to offer silvery illumination in a cloudless sky for the landscape beneath her. Clover did not know of the soil tread underneath, but she did not fear the unknown. Allowing her instinct and Mother Earth to guide, she moved nearly silently amongst the leaf litter until she arrived not far from the coastline of the bay. For whatever reason, sleep had escaped her tonight. That was not to say she wasn’t tired – her weariness was apparent in the heaviness in her chest and the fluttering of her lids veiling straw yellow.
Where she decided to settle, the land broke away into a jagged smile of rocky cliff sides where the bay’s water pressed up beneath and turned into creamy foam. Though she could have traveled further along the coast to find an area where she could safely venture to the water’s edge, she did not mind this headland. A small matchbox withdrawn from the worn pocket of her denim hot pants, Clover lit the end of the joint held loosely between her teeth. Here she would clear her mind, perhaps reconnect with Mother Earth, and then hopefully she could eventually drift off into a peaceful slumber.
