The skies. The winds. The electricity shimmering in the air. All of it pointed towards one thing- a storm was brewing. And it wasn't going to be pretty. Electric shots fizzled through her powder-white fur as she trudged along, pointing her sleek muzzle angrily towards the wind. Her small frame was weak and delicate against the steadily growing breeze- but her paws remained firmly planted. She wouldn't fall back or halt- no, not until it was mandatory.

Lyris had been appointed for ration collecting. Though she didn't know exactly what she was supposed to be looking for. Food, right? Well, that was easy enough.

This territory was still completely new to her. Scents bombarded her nose and entangled into one huge, confusing mass. Where was she supposed to start in this strange place? Well, she did what she had when she had nowhere to go before- when she was doing little more than wandering the forest, scouting for a new home. She followed the birdsong and the fluttering leaves.

There. Evergreen eyes locked to an auburn leaf, drifting lazily to the earth. Legs moved- long and languid- effortlessly as water tumbling over rocks. Fur was brushed back, pressed against her slender figure as the high-speed winds fruitlessly tried to shove her back. Lyris didn't even pause after passing the fallen leaf, she just searched for her next signal as she continued to run. She would find rations. She would sustain her pack.
