Valinta stood resolute in her two-legged form, her diminuitive figure being buffeted by a strong breeze. Beside her stood her young son, and he whimpered softly at his mother's hard expression.
They returned, once again. Valinta, though she had left a while ago, couldn't remember anything but the recent experiences in the territory. She had been attacked and she had despised the weakness that was there in the days afterwards.
But upon her return, she would not waver. The ebony-furred woman returned only to see if another woman still resided in these lands, and if she did not see Sky, then she would inquire about her. Valinta once was glad to call the woman her best friend, and she loved her. Now she didn't know if the feelings that the two had shared remained. Once she knew if Sky still cared, she would leave to see her soon-to-be mate in AniWaya.
If Valinta, a woman of fickle senses and whose mood changed so easily could still love and care for a man she hadn't seen in a while, then he could care for her still, couldn't he? She hoped, and she hoped dearly. But first, she needed to know about Sky.
Lifting up Gunnar, Valinta leaned against the border tree that still had the painted pictures on it, and howled quietly, loud enough to be heard, but not so loud that she annoyed herself. Just loud enough for someone, hopefully someone she knew, to notice and answer. If it was to happen, then it would happen.
She sat down, petting Gunnar on his softly-furred head, and met his eyes, her yellow gaze meeting his blue-black one. "We will be safe soon." she murmurred soothingly to him. "Soon."
