a place called home

The tiny woman had decided today to go explore the mansion once more. Helotes wasn't anywhere nearby and though she had plans to talk to him about his want for her to move closer she had decided that she would venture about the land first before letting him know flat out that she was giving up and giving in. She hated the idea of leaving her strange little abode in the old half dead oak that resided in the mists of the Grotto but she had seen in the past few days that she would need to do what was right for the child.. and if that mean letting her get closer to Helotes at the same time she couldn't really find much fault in it. She knew that their ranks and duties would still take them away from each other from time to time but at least when she was in the clan lands she would be so much closer.

She stood in the yard staring up at the stairs of the mansion. She knew who resided on the second story, though she also knew there were two strong forces that resided below. Helotes and Kaena would never let the issues between the two woman raise hell under the roof they resided in. Though she hoped the warrior princess was smarter than trying to bring her down in the mists of their clan's territories she wasn't so certain anymore. Her arrogance and pride at the clan meeting had shown Zana that the woman was much more dangerous that she had been almost a full cycle before when she'd returned for only mere moons.

She sighed at the idea but didn't move further. She wasn't certain if it was fear of finding some place she felt she would belong or living right below the dragon and her pups that kept her planted firmly on the ground instead of padding up the stairs. She growled at her foolishness and slowly took that first step towards the path that would wind up to the stairs and next to the doorway. She knew what waited beyond, it was just a matter of making up her mind on exploring the space further.
