wildfires under your feet, torch the hills

hey there! welcome ^^ I really like your writing! Big Grin 300+

As always, the Utina man rose with the sun. Its welcoming rays seeped into his hut and he yawned, stretching his arms above his head. The days were growing warmer all the time and he no longer had need for a blanket while he slumbered. Sitting up he rubbed his eyes, wiping the sleep from the pale blue oculars. The broad-chested male took a deep breath and then stood up, grabbing his bow and quiver. Hopefully as he took his morning patrol around the fenced borders he could find a rabbit or two to have for breakfast. Strapping the items on he took off from his home in the direction of the stables. As he made his way Onawa materialized from the morning fog and walked beside him. He smiled at her, and gave her a nod, his customary greeting. He didn't know where it was that she journeyed to in the nights, but he supposed it wasn't any of his business.

Nayati reached the stables quickly and moved to where Iye stood waiting in his stall. "Getting used to the routine, eh brother?" he asked patting the horse's nose. For his first month or so in the lands he had taken his walks on foot, wanting to get to know the land. Know that he knew it though, he needed to make sure that Iye was kept in good shape and condition. Not to mention making sure that he wasn't bored. He was a hunter's horse, and wasn't keen on being cooped up too much. There was no tack used, and almost gracefully the pale luperci hopped astride the stallion and they exited the stables. Fresh morning air bathed their forms and with a slight kick of his heels they galloped off towards the borders.

Once they reached the fence their pace slowed to walk. Usually there was nothing out of the ordinary and so there was no need to rush anywhere. Today didn't appear to be so ordinary though, as a calling call hit his gray dusted ears. Curious, he urged Iye into a canter and the trio took off in the direction of the caller. As the form came into sight he slowed the dapple gray's pace once more, not wanting to alarm the other canine, which was soon recognized as a woman. The closer he came the more surprised he was by her appearance. Aside from the dress, the way she decorated her mane was very much like his own, and how his people adorned themselves. The Utina's interest was very much piqued and a very subtle smile was on his lips as he trotted up to the woman. "Greetings! I heard your call, what is it that you seek here in AniWaya?"
