Eclipse had stayed longer at the waterfall than she had wanted to so now she was trying to make up for lost time. She barely left home it seemed and she wanted to be in the southern lands soon enough. So when she finally reached the end of the mountains and found herself in Drifter’s bay, she felt better and found a small area where the mountain and a verytall cliff was to her back, to rest for the night. She was in between both Salsola and Inferni so she knew she had to keep her guard up, especially with all the reports of the disappearances near the Salsola borders. She wasn’t near the borders but she was sure close enough. Getting what she needed for a fire she decided that roasting the rest of her rabbit would suffice for her for the rest of the night and morning. She wouldn’t have to eat till later after she walked a while.
She lit the fire easy as she could with a winter cold winter weather and not so dry tinder and wood. She didn’t mind the less than satisfactory fire, because soon it would be a nice warm fire that would make her rabbit something tasty, but first she would let it set and brighten before she took her rabbit out. She learned from experience that doing things too quick left unsavory consequences. So she just sat where she was watching the flames grow, her eyes enticed by the dancing light, as it swerved here and there to catch and eat, and grow. She smiled slightly just watching the fire try its best to live and stay lit longer and longer. A hard feet when it was surrounded by snow and slush and cold. Eclipse even played with the fire a little as she pushed a twig in the hot coals, to move the burning wood a little, to a better position to burn and the fire leapt up as if in thanks to her for giving it more to feed upon. Eclipse leaned her back alongside the tall cliff that protected her as she lazily fed the fire a little more before taking out her rabbit and staking it up over the fire, teasing it with it’s juicy fats and oils that could were good fuel for a fire.
