WC:362 | Pts: 3 – Backdated to August 1 | Night.
Having cured the horse of his ailments, Axelle decided to take him out for a little spin. Well, actually a big one because they galloped their way toward Cour des Miracles. Riding came natural to Axelle, probably because of her family’s experience with the creatures – though, most of the family that she knew of had been pure wolf. It was actually a mystery to her of how she was a natural at it. Though, securing herself to the horse was a bit rough because she didn’t have a saddle and when Couer hit high speeds, she felt as if she was just clinging to him.
She tried to have the horse keep a fast, but steady enough pace so that she wouldn’t have to hold on for her life. The time it took for her to get there was a lot shorter than she was used to. She was used to getting to places herself, not riding a creature that ran for a lifetime. They got there in a little less than a day’s time. She could see the magnificent trees encasing around the pack lands, and the scents around the borders were what told her that she was nearing claimed lands. She slowed Couer and steered him to run along the borders, but not too close. She hoped she would be able to spot Alder’s cabin from where she was running along. She had no idea what to look for. She had his rope slung around her shoulder, and hoped to give it back to him tonight.
The night life around in the forests gave the evening its own buzz. There were bugs and owls out hunting and scavenging. She kept Couer away from the forests on their way to Cour des Miracles, hoping that it’ll make the trip there a lot more quicker – and she was right. Axelle slowed the shire to a slow walk as she scanned the trees, but she couldn’t see much. She threw back her head and howled, short and sweet to not alarm anymore else. She hoped he’d recognize a scent or something.
