They could stay there in the house he'd said, her and her siblings, that's what Gabriel had told them. How could she though? How could she stay in a place that reminded her nothing more than of the fact that her mother had left them without even a goodbye? What else did that mean? It meant that their father would no longer visit the lands, that she would likely never see him again. Unless..unless she took matters in to her own hands. She'd grown a bit since she'd tried to find him the first time, when the older hybrid had carried her home when she'd gotten tired of walking. Rachias knew she could do it this time though, which was why she set out early that morning, the day after her mother had left. The way she'd gone before had been the wrong way, she remembered that, and thus she started off in a different direction. Night and day have come and gone quickly, quicker than it should have, and the young hybrid child found herself wandering at the latest signs of darkness. Tired and cold, she managed to find a small hole, dug right beneath the roots of a tree, to take shelter in that night. It was an uneasy sleep, waking often, but she managed to make it through and begin her journey once again, which had ultimately ended up with the child running right into the borders of Clouded Tears. She knew it was the right place, she could recall the scent filling their den each time her father visited. "Daaaaaad?!" She started out, yelling as loud as she could despite the shrill puppy voice that she had. She started into the lands, calling out for him now and again, hell bent on finding him. |
