The duties of a leader where numerous. Jaden knew that every moment of every day he could find something to take his time. But that wasn’t always desirable. Being always busy led to stress and discomfort in one’s own home. That was the last thing he wanted as things were bad enough as they stood. All he seemed to do was find choirs that needed done in the pack. X’yrin and he didn’t have meaningful conversations and there were few enough wolves within their pack that the dark Alpha could wander about the territory and bump into not a single soul. He was begging to feel oddly alone in the collective of his pack and it disturbed him a bit.
The Optime now found himself outside of his own boarders. He had left the familiar for a chance to explore more. A day ago he had set out to again be sure that the game the pack planned to hunt was still grazing in the area. It would be his excuse should anyone ask. This was an escape from the ordinary, a detour from his duties for a day or two. Time to think and be free.
The deer were still here. He ran into them only a few hours into his second day of travel. With them found, he was no longer able to look for them and knew the time to return home had nearly come. But something stopped him that always caught his eye. The ocean was a spectacular sight. He figured the point he was viewing now was somewhere between Salsola and Inferni, two places the alpha didn’t wish to tread long, but he could enjoy it for an hour or two before starting his trek back. There was little he found more comforting than the soft beat of waves on sand. It was one of the few things missing from his home.
Jaden does. Jaden speaks. Jaden thinks.
