Life was cold, Talitha had realized, without close family nearby. All of her attempts at ending the life she had learned to detest had failed; either she had been interrupted, or she simply couldn't get up the gall to follow through. Perhaps Gabriel had been right. Perhaps Talitha Lykoi was like her mother. Faolin Mogotsi lived in her daughter without approaching the lands she had been banned from, a bitter reminder that she held blood from the Massacre family at all. And so, without desire to hear her father preach to her more about how she had failed God, she avoided the inner sanctum. Her feet kept moving. She stayed near the borders, or in the open world. Myron had tried to help, but he had failed.
Again, it seemed her moment would be interrupted. A howl from the borders, clear and musical, drew the princess from deep thought. Crimson eyes narrowed, irritation bubbling through her veins. It wasn't her job to welcome the new members, but she felt obligated to reinstate God's love into her world; perhaps by benefitting Inferni, He would once more smile upon her. Unhealthy as she was, she maintained her outer confidence as her eyes settled upon the sight of what seemed to be a dog. Memories of unpleasant news flooded her mind. Dogs. She saw no difference in the more domesticated canines, as they were large and wolf-like in appearance. Still, she could not run from them. She herself carried more of their blood than she had every wanted to admit.
"You're looking for something, outsider?" Where once there would have been amusement or coy disrespect, there was nothing. She spoke in blunt words, with cold voice and colder eyes. Silently, ruby gaze surveyed the woman on the other side of the skulls, unwilling to allow a weakness like herself to cross over. Though not a sentinel of the clan, she would raise Hell to the earth before making the same mistakes as her father in allowing what might prove to be a traitor to enter. "Perhaps you have business with Inferni? Or are you simply passing by."
