Keldava strolled along happily, her nostrils wide as she happily took in the scent of Arte, a welcome smell after her journey to the south and back again. By now she could find her way home based on the scenery alone but she was taking a slow walk instead; aside from the rainclouds on the horizon which were going to move away from her if anything judging by the winds, it was a pleasant night with few clouds and a bright moon shining down upon her. Threading in and out of the bushes, Keldava would stop occasionally to gaze upwards, enjoying her walk.
Keldava was just about to start heading back to the Arte territory for some sleep when she heard it. A scream of rage, echoing throughout the lands around her. The voice was laden with bloodlust and anger but, more importantly, it was Mahnaya’s voice! Instantly Keldava took off running towards the rain clouds where the sound had come from. As she ran she started to grow, muscles bulging out and claws and teeth lengthening into formidable weapons. By the time she was halfway to Mahnaya Keldava has shifted fully into Secui form and was barelling through the undergrowth, smashing through the same shrubs she had been weaving around not too long ago.
Keldava skidded to a stop when her mother suddenly appeared out of the gloom, leaving thick trails in the dirt as her claws scrabbled for purchase against the momentum she had built up. Once she was stationary she barked over at Mahnaya, her voice split between concern and terror, ”Mahnaya, what’s happened!?” she asked, eyes scanning the darkness as though some enemy was about to come charging out. Her nose caught a whiff of a scent and her body was still as a statue while her mind tried to process what her nose had just gathered. Blood. ‘Dora’s blood. Razor sharp teeth bared themselves as Keldava started to growl, her head locked in the direction the blood led, ”’Dora…” she said, barely restraining herself from leaping off that very second.
