The Sidhe had been immensely isolated in the mountainous sanctuary of Gampo Abbey as soon as the Jinne first stumbled upon the grand staircase that led to the temple which had been vacant for centuries. From the temple dormitories, to the waterfall, to the gardens, and to the labyrinth of ancient books found throughout the temple grounds, Alae's heart and soul were entirely captured. This was her true home, and while Dahlia was held close to her heart, for a moment the history of Dahlia temporarily dissipated from her mind. Alae had not left the temple walls since Kael first guided them both to the Abbey. Ever since, the Sidhe was deep in mindful meditation. Not speaking to a single soul ever since Nayru came with her to view the Gampo Abbey for the first time, it appeared as if Alae disappeared from Ichika altogether. Not to say she didn't enjoy the company of Ichika, but the entire ambience of Gampo Abbey stole her soul for quite sometime.
On this day, Alae decided to emerge from the temple walls of the Abbey in order to skirt the borderlines of Ichika. Realizing that it was also her duty to greet potential newcomers to Ichika in order to gain trust and acceptance amongst the ranks, Alae wondered how many individuals had approached them since their settlement in the mountain range. For a moment, the Sidhe felt slightly disappointed she could not purge through those that sought acceptance, feeling a tinge of worry that the other leader ranked members might have had their paws full with approaching outsiders, but it didn't seem like there was turbulent air to be found over Ichika. Ever since the pack's settlement, everything had been peaceful, serene, a tad bit quiet, but tranquil. Kael resorted to sleeping the afternoon away back in the dark corners of the Abbey, while Alae enjoyed a mindful, meditative walk by herself along the borderlines, taking in the sweet scent of the summer, the light breeze, and the enjoyment of the day before her. Nature was beautiful up here.
