A dark-hued shape confidently walked along one of the many paths that weaved through the wilderness known as "Colchester Quarter". In one of her gloved hands was her violin case and in the other was a dagger. Clad in her normal attire, a black crop top and leggings and her amethyst sash tied around her waist she didn't seem like a normal creature.

After many arguments, the two companions had decided to leave Amherst. Cobalt didn't feel comfortable in the unfamiliar environment and demanded to go back to the feral style of living. On Adrian's request, they had settled in an old house in these woods and now both were separately exploring this new place. The darkling should have known that the abandoned city woldn't be good for a mostly feral Luperci who refused to shift into the bipedal form. Yet, the city girl in her always wanted to live in a house or city as it felt more comfortable for her but the hunter of the pair had dragged her back out.

Finally, the violinist found what she had been looking for, a small forested meadow. Perfect for her to do what she loved, to dance and play. She skipped forward, agilely weaving and hopping through the forest and soon found herself in the clearing. The loner gently set her case down and carefully removed her onyx instrument and bow before starting to play. Then the music ignited one of her other passions.

The dark dancer then let her body react to the melody she was playing. She lightly pranced around and sometimes even added a slight twist. Then, she stood and spun with her leg sweeping straight out at hip level. She added in her body swaying and twisting to the music and other moves as she danced.

The Raven-Shadowryn was oblivious to the world which still moved around her.

"But everywhere you are the sun comes out"

A strange bright-furred shape walked down a well-trodden path. Large ears were pricked and had black hair flowing beneath and behind them in a ponytail with her bangs covering her left side. She wore a light grey dress with black leather replacing the cloth once it passed her hips and stopped and covered her knees. Slung over her shoulder was a satchel.

Avinalora was roaming one of her usual haunts, this forest in the Alcrest Shore area that was easier for her to access. She had no particular reason to come here other than to wander. She was unaccompanied for once as her fox wards-even Luna-were learning hunting skills from her brother, Jarix. The medic was free to be alone in her thoughts and in the woods, or she thought she was.

The jackal mutt's sensitive ears picked up a foreign noise that sounded like music. She changed her direction without thinking and went towards the sound. Song lyrics were the way she expressed herself and the girl wanted to meet a fellow musician, one who played an instrument rather than used the personal instrument that the wordsmith used which was her voice. She didn't hear any singing but regardless, she kept on heading towards the music.

She came to a meadow in the middle of the forest and found the owner of the instrumental music. She couldn't really make out any details from far away other than the dark shape and how the person appeared to be dancing and playing at the same time. The she-jackal then made a quiet cough before she spoke. "Hi" She called out and started walking towards the person and stopped until she could see all the details of the musician. She was in for the surprise of her left when she saw the Luperci, one she never thought that she would experience before.

Adrian was pulled out of the musical trance when someone coughed and said "Hi". She whirled around and was in for the shock of the lifetime when she caught sight of the newcomer. She had never thought of the possibility this could happen, but here she was staring at her. Her violin and bow were still held, but the arms holding them had dropped to her sides in shock.

The former assassin took in the details of the Luperci standing in front of her. She had jackal-like features-large ears, narrow face, long legs, and a lean-skinny build-the girl's eyes were different shades of green-albeit that it was more subtle then her own, she had a foxlike tail, Her hair wasblack, and she was very petite. Those features mirrored her own. The main difference between the two were the different hues in their appearance. The violinist had almost-black fur with dove grey stockings, underbelly, chest, and tipped tail and her eyes were two shades of purple. The female had silver fur with a darker grizzled saddle and bi-shaded green eyes.

The former Sicaria member was shocked at the revelation she had come to. They were sisters! She wasn't the only weird creature here! The darkling's thoughts briefly went back to her what her father, Valdis had said about Alimro. That she had a failed mateship and a bad birthing. Her mother had never told her father about the pups, though. She had assumed that bad birthing meant that the pups were dead, but here was a girl that shared the same physical characteristics she had. She could also tell that this "sister" was a bit older than her despite being shorter than her. This meant that she was probably the one from her mother's first litter.

"Why do you look like me? Was all the shocked Shadowryn could say as she was still recovering from the shock.

Avinalora's mismatched eyes widened as she finally could see the person. The girl looked like her! Well sort of looked liker her. The jackal-like build and face was recognizable to the fellow jackal. A bottlebrush tail swayed behind the darkling and unmistakable bi-shaded eyes stared into her own bi-hued gaze. And the black hair that was in a braid behind her was much like the ravenette.

The healer had never known her parents as they had abandoned her at birth. But here was a similar looking girl right in front of her! Albeit her fur wasn't as jackal-like as the she-jackal's but instead it was dark and had grey markings. And those purple eyes were alien to her green. If she was her full sister, they probably would have shared more traits. So she was a half-sister? The Pollux was fine with that as at least she wasn't the only one of whatever family she came from.

Then, the stranger asked a question, "Why do you look like me?" The silver fox shrugged and replied with, "Either we're related or this is just some really weird coincidence." Then, the healer decided to ask one of her own questions and tell this "sister" about herself. "I'm Avinalora from the Midnight Shores pack. What's your name?" She had decided to tell this person about what group she hailed from as the fae smelled like a loner to the former loner. Maybe she could convince the girl to join the Shores? Wasn't it better for family to stick together?

The ivory female was also thinking about her parents. She didn't remember them at all. She didn't even remember what they smelled like. Maybe her half-sister knew one of her parents! She could finally learn about them and maybe even they were here in Nova Scotia!

Adrian was pulled from her shocked thoughts by the female's introduction and question. So her name was Avinalora? It was quite pretty and she had never heard of a name like that. And then there was the pack she said that she was from. "Midnight Shores" was a foreign name to the former Sicaria as she had only heard of a few packs but not that one. And then the girl asked her for her name. Throwing every single thing they taught to her about introducing herself was thrown out the window. "I'm Adrian Raven-Shadowryn, a loner." the dark vixen responded.

Then, the violinist decided to ask a few questions of her own to Avinalora as she wanted to learn more about her as she was sure that this was her sister. Yes, they looked different but the features that they shared could not be a coincidence. "So, what's your professions?" The dancer asked as it seemed like the best way she could learn about the silver female. She had a quite a jumble of scents on her and the Raven-Shadowryn was surprised to smell fox mixed in with the scent of herbs, birds, and a male jackal. Did she have a fox as a pet? Or maybe she lived in an old fox den? Adrian dismissed the latter as it was clear that Avinalora was more humanized and would probably live in a house.
