Dated to the 8th if that's alright with you? Set in the Halcyon Mountains It was early in the morning, the sun had just begun to peek from above the horizon, painting the clouds that blotted the sky with bright and vibrant rose and gold tones. The sky was slowly beginning to lighten, as were the lands around it, a faint dusting of snow covered the lower lying lands, the tips of the mountains themselves were covered in what seemed to be a very thick layer of recent snowfall. The night had been a very cold one, with a small snowstorm in the early hours of the morning, there was a cold wind that was sill blowing through the lands, a reminder of the chill of the previous night. The lands seemed abuzz with nose this morning, the birds seemed more alive and awake than they had in previous months, perhaps the coldness of the hours before had awoken them from their silent slumber. Their chirruping and calls filled the early morning air, they were managing to be just as noisy as the less hardy summer time birds that had left long ago and would not be back for some months to come yet. Soran smiled as these sounds caught her dark ears, the silver hoops in the tip of her left ear twinkled in the pale sunlight as the velvety appendages turned to catch the cheerful sound of the awakening birds. The sable female walked slowly through the low lying hills of the Halcyon mountains, she had left earlier in the night to go for a walk, the dark Beta wolf had been quite the recluse in the previous weeks and had decided to change this. She had decided that the best thing that she could do would be a proper member of the pack, she was the second in command after Zalen and Titania after all and it was her duty to behave as such. It was true that she had still continued her duties while avoiding the other wolves in the lands, but she was supposed to be there to care for those of a lower rank to herself and her only real interactions had been with Deuce, her mate and lover and Zalen and Titania; the time had come for her to be more sociable.
She had not left the lands during her time living as something of a hermit, which was why she was now out this very morning, she had decided to walk and gather her thoughts, to stretch her legs and clear her head. The ebony pelted female walked at a relaxed pace, jade eyes scanning the lands around her as she did so, ears twitching and stirring at the sounds that surrounded her. She smiled softly to herself as she walked, she was in her Optime form today, her arms swung by her side in time with her strides as she walked; her mane had been pulled back into a long braid that rested down her back, it gently bumped against her spine with every step she took. Today seemed a good day, the dark Beta wolf felt exhilarated, she was planning on having a quick walk, perhaps a bit of a run around these lands and then she would go home in order to attend to her duties. So far she had already begun to meet others in her pack, new members that she had never seen before, it seemed that she had missed too much, the time had come to rectify that. Yes, perhaps just another hour or two out here and then she might head for home, well... maybe a little longer, the sable female would simply just have to see how the day took her, yes, perhaps that was simply the best way.
