Hoof it on over.

483 words. I dunno if you saw it, but Shi asked if Lili has been to DDM before XD. I guess I'll act like Shi's voice was lost in the crowd when they came to AniWaya.

The forest was no place for a wolf, Shiloh had concluded. She didn't care what others had to say about it, unspeakable horrors happened in forests - night or day. The tree limbs that could snag, the terrifying creatures that could kill and eat a lone wolf, and all the little crevices and dips that were full of mud or swamp muck, just waiting to be fallen into. Shiloh shuddered once again, though it wasn't because of the cold, and wrapped her small hands around her to comfort herself.

Her fear vanished, however, at the scents of several wolves were coming in fresh in the pristine female's nostrils. As the trees parted in their perfect moment, like curtains unveiling before a show, they came onto the village. Cerulean eyes beamed at all the different things that were so... different! Shiloh had never seen houses so small and round before, and made out of simpler materials. The ground, as expected, covered with snow, and beneath that nothing but cold hard ground. Wolves shuffled left and right, and though they seemed busy, they walked with calm and graceful steps. It seemed like they were in no hurry at all, and a few even waved in the trio's direction.

"Oh my," she Dawnbringer female breathed out. Her breath misted in front of her before disappearing once more, as they kept on walking. Shiloh's bright blue eyes still took in the serene view before her, and walked slower than the horse and the rider she met not minutes before. The pristine female looked on with interest at all the clothing they wore, and wished she could have made some in the same style. Nothing was too bright or too dull, and the patterns were simple, yet classy. Some leather garments were adorned with feathers or beads, of the brightest and fullest quality one could make, which was what Shiloh loved even more. She noticed some women with feathers in their hair, like hair pieces that she herself would wear out of flowers. She glanced back at Liliana, and had just now noticed that she did the same as the other AniWayans.

She was motioned over, and followed without hesitating. Shiloh would definitely get to know this village better - the people, their ways, and their customs. The terrain sloped downwards, and Shiloh watched her feet as they descended the small hillside. Her face scrunched up at the smell of cattle, who were easy to spot, then began to wonder what animals didn't these wolves provide for. "This place.. it's so different from Dahlia," she admitted into the frostbitten air over to Lili, who was just ahead of her, and the mare just a hoof ahead of that. The pristine female was glad to have walked so far, perhaps there was more knowledge than she thought she'd take back with her when she headed home the next day.
