Scorpius had been spending less time near his home and seem to be spending more time around the pack that his dear friend Melee was from. He could still picture the day that he had met up with her and they reverted back to their old forms from when they were pups. It was nice to feel like that again, even if they both had gotten older. He was wondering what else the two of them would be able to do together. He was glad that she at least liked the gift that he had given to her. He thought it would have been perfect for her when he saw it back in Halifax. Perhaps he would be able to find her another gift if he went back. He was not sure if he would go there for any other reason, but he figured having a reason to see her again was more than enough.

The black wolf yawned as he woke from his slumber and rubbed his eyes, moving his mask up over the covered one to rub it. He was not sure what he was going to do today. He could have gone back to his duties and taken care of some maps, but he was not sure if that was what he wanted. Perhaps he should take his new horse out for a while and ride it. He had remembered Saul's teachings on how to ride a horse and he was really looking forward to the one he caught during the trade with his friend. He stretched out his limbs and got up as he began to head to the part of the cave where they kept all the horses. He looked around as he strolled in for his horse and soon spotted it over near the wall. He approached carefully, not sure how the creature would react. As he came closer, he stopped to look around. He didn't really have a saddle or equipment for his horse, nor did he know where he would be able to get some. The wolf soon shrugged his shoulders and got a rope and began to lead the horse out. The least he would be able to do in the meantime was make sure the two of them had a good relationship.

Scorpius soon led Midnight to the Aelcrest Shore. It was nice to be along the coast and great to get away from all the mountains. He could feel the soft sand in his paws as he walked along the shore line. He tried to stay a little close to the water, just in case the horse wanted to get a little wet. He wasn't too happy about the idea. It was getting into the colder days and he would rather stick to the light breeze that came from the sea, rather than the chill from the water. At one point, he began to look at the ground, noticing all the shells that he passed by. Perhaps Melee would like one. He began to look for a special one, one that he was sure would make her very happy.

The amenities provided by her change in location were nice indeed. A little stroll from the Ichikan borders lead her through the Wentworth to the shored end of the territory. The warrior hadn’t seen waves as often as she would have liked. And a strange comfort came in listening to the rushing waves as they churned to shore. So used to the still, unmoving earth, this change brought a smile the likes which few had witnessed. It was a fearful, excited smile as if she couldn’t tell which to express more. It kept her on the edge of wonderment. Her Optime body treading atop the soft granules, feeling the grit as it provided new sensations as it slipped through her defined digits. How strange… but nice.

She had intended to simply come to the shores to bathe but from her purposeful intent distracted by the newness of it all. Compared to the rivers that lay dormant and dull, these rolling waves, the salty spray in the air, was truly wonderful. The woman sighed, adorned with a comfortable smile as she looked out beyond the white foam and churned to the shores and off to the deep blue that spanned to lands unknown.

So consumed by her own musings, she hadn’t noticed a large shape down the rim of the shore. Were it not for the agitated call of her owl, she would have continued as she had without care. The avian swept down with talons unfurled then lapsed onto her vacant shoulder; her treasured furred shoulder left behind with her intent to bathe. “Movement. Something… moves.” Gradually, she came to better understand the hoots of her owl, learning that it was not his intelligence that was the issue, but her understanding of his speech. Still, she could only pick bits and pieces of his language, but it was enough to grasp his urgent message; they were not alone.

She raised a claw to allow her nameless companion to nibble it to bring him comfort, assuring him with a soft rumble there was no need to worry. She looked across the expansive shores and saw the movement her friend attempted to warn her about. Of course, his words were heeded as an engaging opportunity as opposed to a warning, and wasted little time in crossing the distance. Her towering form strode gracefully across the sands, no longer burdened by the awkward shuffling of lack of use. She had ground more confident, the dark cloud that once hung over her had parted allowing her true radiance to come forth once again. She smiled warmly to the dark figure and his steed as she approached, her nostrils encapsulated by his strong, lupine musk. Her tail waved in greeting as she lifted her paw, palm forward in welcome. Her companion too greeted the stranger with a soft, careful hoot. “Hello there.”
