[/html]Her fingers curled into a fist, eyes closed momentarily. Fighting off the memories and the residual fear, she pushed it down hard. The things that she saw there were unlike anything the gentle and fragile wolfess had ever seen in her long lifetime. They stayed with her, her kindness and her faith had made her weak. Not strong as some other devotions might. She thought of Gabriel, and how strong his belief had made him. It brought him power, while Anu felt helpless in her own beliefs.
She looked towards the brightness of the Sun; and it blinded her. A reminder of how in what she believed was not powerless. Where was Gabriel's reminder? Where was the wolf at all? Anu forced the fears down as well as the longing to know the whereabouts and well being of her friend. His life would not cross hers, they were two paths very much separated. Hardly in the same woods...
A voice similar to the ghost in her thoughts caused her eyes to open. And for a moment he was here, though as her gaze cleared it was Cypress that blue eyes fell upon. Anu leaned into his touch. A smile came to her lips, though saw some worry in his features and nodded at the question. Yes. The Sun is warm today. Cypress had been with her since he had recovered her at the borders, hunting and providing for her. She had not seen the anger she knew he was capable of in all the weeks she had been back, his demeanor was consistent and pleasurable. He had grown and Anu was proud of him.
How are you, my son? She asked, hoping that he was taking some time for himself. He was young, and yet not a pup any longer. He was coming into his own and she had always wondered if he would pick up a specialty or if he would find a special wolf among the pack mates... Such were the thoughts of a mother.
