She's in her Secui form. :3[/html]
The feeling of wholesome contentment prevailed. Perhaps it had something to do with her inner feeling of accomplishment, the knowledge that she had done something, and the determination to keep things right (or make them right, however one wished to call it), or perhaps it was all external, and she was only being affected by the world around her. It was not cold out, for summer nights rarely were- and the feeling of the wind at her back and the sound of the mountain slowly beginning to settle down for the night was reassuring. At the same time, she could feel that other creatures were only beginning, and some were still waiting for the day to begin.
She picked her way through the densely-forested mountainside, not at all in a hurry. She followed a lightly-trodden dear path, one she would soon have to deviate from to reach Shadowed Sun. She glanced over, noticing here that the trees had begun to thin slightly. She smiled; it was nice here. The southern side of the mountain, though more heavily-forested near the peak, thinned out a bit where the mountain began to slope down to meet the Dampwoods.
She glanced around a second time, feeling the wind shift ever so slightly. The wind tickled her fur, twisting tendrils around its spindly fingers, before letting go and continuing on its journey. With it, the wind brought the sound of another wolf, a male, a short distance away. She had not noticed him approach, for the wind had been in his favour. He blended in with the shadows with ease; his coat colour was the stark opposite (or complimentary?) of Tayui's. His blue eyes were startlingly bright, but clear and perceptive. "Evening," she replied easily. "It always seems to be, especially at this time." She offered a small smile, intending to continue on, but paused; unsure if he needed something, lingering.
