The sky was gray and hinted of rain with its chilly breeze and darkening clouds. Rio spent the hours out of doors, exploring her beloved home even more deeply than ever before. It was the perfect day for this, warm but with the frost of the spring breeze. She could have remained in the woods and fields searching for flowers all afternoon, even through the rain. Rain didn't bother her, and she loved the cleansing it brought to the earth. But her footsteps took her elsewhere of interest, as hues of crimson thickened to blot away green and brown. This was a beautiful place, vines thickly entwining the trunks of the trees. There was life and color and all manner of lovely things surrounding her. What a wealth she had stumbled upon!


The sooty girl ventured still further into the depths of the forest, surprised when her path lead her to an inconspicuous cabin. Its presence didn't surprise her; cabins were not an uncommon sight in Phoenix Valley. But its secluded nature was something new, and the wonder of it drew her closer, until four white paws rested against the boards of the porch. The door was open, but inside was dark enough to render her blind. Had the wind blown the old door ajar? There was something eerie here, a chill that went deeper into her flesh than the wind could penetrate. She was unsettled, but oh so curious; she could not linger on the porch any longer.


Rio entered the dark, silent cabin, ears erect and nose twitching, for she sought a solution to the mystery it posed. But it seemed brighter once she was inside, and her periwinkle eyes lit quickly upon the lax form of a flaxen werewolf, stretched across the couch. It was only Harlowe. There was nothing to fear. He had a book open, a characteristic of his, and she smiled shyly as she approached to sit a few feet away from his upper half. "Harlowe! You found this place, too," she said quietly, respecting the calm of the cabin and of Harlowe himself.
