The sun felt amazing against her body, her golden fur glinting in the sunlight and already drying to a comfortable dampness. The heat would finish the job soon enough, but Palaydrian was more focused on the warming sensations in her limbs. It had been too long since she had last basked in the sun’s rays and she was beginning to question herself why when her seal point ears swiveled to the side. Her curiosity was piqued as her head turned to the sound of the source. Her bi colored gaze didn’t capture anyone on the beach, must be a squirrel in the woods, she thought to herself as she turned her head back to the lake and continued to sun bathe. Her eyes closed to fully enjoy the relaxation as her head dipped back, but another sound rang out and caused her eyes to flash open. What the heck, she said under her breath, her head turned towards the woods once more. That definitely had not sounded like a squirrel or any woodland creature for that matter. Mingled sounds of snarls and growls amidst the droning cicadas caused her to quickly scramble to her feet. Some type of prey was not out of the question.

Her hackles rose in response to the threatening sounds, but they were hidden by the curtain of lilac streaked hair that fell around her. She didn’t have time to gather it and braid it as she knew she needed to investigate wherever and whomever the noise was coming from. A sudden stab of panic entered her heart as gloved hands went down to her stomach and the little baby bump there. Could she really face an attacker right now, if this was a trespasser, or even worse...Amy or Aram? She shook her head with a low growl and dropped her hands. She couldn’t be foolish right now. The ocean eyed lady knew how to fight and had been given the skills and more when it came to defending herself and her unborn children. She’d be careful and cautious, if it turned out to be someone the pack was on high alert for, she could always run for help. Drin would adopt her hunting and tracking ways, the skills which had heightened her stealth overtime..

She had never snuck up on anything in her optime form, but her movements mirrored those she adopted in her lupine. Silence wasn’t something she needed to completely rely on here as the cicadas provided a noisy enough background and whomever was making sound, it was clear they weren’t expecting anyone to be nearby. She swiftly moved along the beach and entered the woods where the noise was coming from. It sounded like someone was tearing up trees or something which had immediately made her think of beavers, but as far as she knew, they did not snarl, growl, or bark. Under the treetops, Drin closed and opened her eyes until they adjusted to the dappled light as she had been exposed to the brightness of the beach seconds ago. Once satisfied with her cleared vision, she continued to slink cautiously towards the sound, ready to turn and bolt if need be, but her eyes soon picked out a dark from against the underbrush. Zalen? She thought, but then his scent hit her.

Her eyes widened with surprise. She had heard that he had returned, but this was the first time she was seeing him since a complete stranger had told her about him. Shadowfang? She called out, not wanting to interrupt whatever it was he was doing, and it looked like he was wreaking havoc on a circle of trees. Drin stood a few feet from the perimeter of his circle of destruction, not sure how stable the man was and a bit hesitant of her brother as she had never met him before.
