let me know if this table is hard for you to read. <3 Forward dated to Nov. 22

She had finally reached the point she had been pursuing. It had taken her a few days to reach the place where she would reunite with her sister, a pack she knew nothing about, not even its name. The journey from Ichika no Ho-en had taken longer than it should have. Sky's trail was faint, long worn by the months of separation, but Dusk had the nose of a hunter, and that gift alone was the only thing that made it possible for her to follow the scent of her only living relative. It wasn't only the difficult search that took Dusk a long time to reach Cercatori d'Arte. During the journey she had moved slowly, rested often, and spent several hours confined in the wilderness, stalling the reunion that she dreaded and yearned for. She feared her sister's reaction to her sudden reappearance. Though the resentment she held for the younger woman remained deeply engrained in her mind, there was also immense and almost unbearable guilt. She could no longer avoid Sky. She had been procrastinating their inevitable encounter for too long; the remorse she felt was terrible.

Without any expectations, or any plans, Dusk approached the territory thick with her sister's aroma. Ahead of her was a vast field overflowing with what must have been a breathtaking display of wildflowers, now destroyed into dull, wilted plants resemling weeds. The evening sky was dark and cloudy, and smelled of rain. A heavy sigh expanded her deep, softly furred chest, her exhale of air drifting from her maw in tendrils of silvery fog. She lifted her crown to the ominous sky, and with a plume of frost, sang a wolfsong meant only for her little sister. The call was hauntingly beautiful, the deep, powerful voice full of sorrow and emotion.
