Long into Titania’s respite the serenity of her surroundings was finally broken by the sound of voices. No… not really voices but a voice and some kind of chattering. The sounds drew closer and closer for a short while before holding still, as though the culprits had stopped their trek down the road. Resistant to ending her little siesta, Titania merely turned an ear toward the pair, but as her curiosity surmounted she soon found herself rolling back over and standing up.

When she popped up above the grasses she scanned the verdant landscape to catch sight of the white and black girl standing not too far off, speaking to invisible creatures. With her head tilted down, Adonia was clearly focusing on something Titania couldn’t see from her vantage point, the baby eagle obscured by the grasses.

“What kind of imp are you talking to over there?” she asked, her voice a breezy chortle. She was clearly joking, although in Titania’s world things like imps and fairies were real and she probably wouldn’t have thought twice about it if Adonia answered her seriously. After all, the Alphess had been known to talk to the fairies herself, and both she and Zalen had witnessed the phenomenon of Ruby’s ghost appearing in Avalon all those months ago. Her paws danced over the ground as she trotted toward Adonia.

When she drew closer she could finally see the indignant young eagle through the blades of grass and a new kind of smile came to her muzzle. She recognized the bird’s species immediately – even if she didn’t know exactly what they were called. Her uncle Niro had an avian companion just like it, although Marahute was much older. She had made a fine hunting companion. Even her cousin, Jiva, had taken up his father’s ornithological hobby and had his own companion here in New Dawn as well.

“I didn’t know anyone but Jiva had a winged pet,” she said, not knowing if the bird could understand her or if she would offend it with the word ‘pet.’ She lowered her nose, bringing her muzzle close to the youngster and sniffing at the bird, her tail twitching in a sideways wag. “Did you have it all this time or did you just find it?” Her eyes flicked to the nearby road, once paved smooth but now a cracked mess, and then back to Adonia. She was in good spirits, her nap leaving her happy even if a little groggy. “And what are you up to traveling the highway all alone?”
