It was early in the morning, the birds were singing in the trees, well the birds that had remained to see the winter time through. But still there was a weak dawn chorus that pattered through the lands here and there. The sun was hanging low and fat in the sky, painting the clouds with reds, pinks and golds as it rose, suggesting that rain would potentially be on the way later in the day. The autumn was now well underway, the green grasses were littered with fallen leaves in all sorts of bright colours, reds and oranges, they were falling from the trees in droves now, soon enough the winter would be upon the lands and the chill in the air would become much, much more pronounced. It was already really rather chilly today, there was a cold breeze blowing across the lands and the sun had yet to rise high enough to allow any warmth to be emitted from it. Here and there the berries and nuts were being stripped from the trees and bushes by small animals, animals that knew of the hardship to come, gathering food to bury and store for the difficulties to come. Through all of this the ebony pelted female walked, it had been a longer walk than she remembered, perhaps it was the chill of the lands that had caused this. Then again she had paused in the Dampwoods to rest, hoping to see her young friend that lived within the forest there. But the ebony pelted female was walking to Anathema today, she intended to stop on the way home and see Jazper, her step son, he had started a new pack and she was keen to see how he was getting along with it. The dark male seemed to have upset the dark Aedile's leader, but he was still family to the dark female and she would not turn him away, she loved him dearly. The same was said of Naniko, her alabaster daughter who had started Anathema, she was not welcome in the dark female's pack, but that did not mean that the older female would not come here to see her, she loved her, even though she had managed to damage Crimson Dreams' pack member deeply.
The truth was that there was not much that Naniko could do that would cause the ebony pelted Aedile to turn her back on her, she had been through drug addiction herself and knew that scorn and hatred was not something that would help the alabaster female, what she needed was caring and understanding, then again the issue had not been discussed between the pair of them last time the dark female had arrived, so perhaps it was all over, after all Naniko had pups now, she needed to be clean and sober to care for them. The ebony female thought all of this as she walked through the lands, soon enough she came upon the borders of Anathema, the scent was obvious enough, the dark lady stopped just short of the border line; the sable female knew that just because she was the Angela's mother it did not give her the right to simply waltz into the lands. The sable female reached up with her good hand and brushed her mane from her face as she stood there, her other arm neatly placed in a sling. When she had decided that she was ready the ebony pelted dreamer lifted her dark head, she opened her maw carefully and let out a loud call for someone to come and greet her so that she might see her daughter and her young grandchildren.
