Word Count → 310 :: Hope you don't mind me tossing Clover in here!
Golden chestnut hair fell in a veil as the young coyote stooped forwards, a hand reaching out to find the cool wall of limestone. The horizon had been swallowed up behind her as Clover had made her way into the entrance of the caverns. Though she had passed Grimwell countless times, this was one of the first times she had dared go inside. Her aim was to locate either or her sisters, for they were known for not staying in one place in particular. The girl should have known better than to enter unannounced, but she hadn’t realized she had entered a private cavern and not a large, public area.
The small tunnel began to widen as Clover guided herself along, all the while her hand tracing the limestone which somehow made the presence of her usual rings and bracelets more noticeable. When the narrow path widened into a larger room, both pale yellow eyes widened at what she saw. Clover wasn’t quite sure what she had expected to find inside, but she marveled none the less at this reality of a world beneath the earth. However, her eyes had widened for yet another reason – she was not alone.
"Hello there, love," she called quietly, now wondering if she had truly wandered into someone’s room; it seemed as if she had. "Are you... alright?" She had happened to catch the girl’s hand wander to her stomach, and Clover played with the idea that perhaps this woman was expecting. The coyote before her was not a familiar face, so the hippie child could only speculate. "I didn’t mean to eavesdrop," she added in a tone quieter than before, not that she had really heard anything. Had her cheekbones not been veiled by the mask of roan red fur, it would have been apparent that a bloom of rose had formed there.
