Her chocolate and red tail waved behind her, eager for an adventure and a quest. It was one thing to always be looking for new things and places. To constantly be on the lookout for fantasies that would lead her down never traveled paths. But it was another thing entirely to help a new friend find something they lost. Someone they lost in this case. Her excitement doubled at the thought her companion proposed. An honorary sister was not something to be passed up lightly, but it was also a bond that was not to be made on a whim. As excitable and playful as Taika was there was a subtle intelligence that sparked in the golden cracks of her creamy brown eyes. Her smile grew broader when she learned the name of her companion, as well as the name of her possible brother.

Ears perked in interest and she danced around Coquette, all too happy to help and share her knowledge.I have been to Glorall, the beach pack. There is ‘sand’ there that feels incredible between your paws. The fairies and spirits there are friendly enough, but they are not as outgoing as those of the forests. The Alpha seems okay. He looks after his pack, and is wary of those he cannot trust. She stopped her circling for a moment and grinned to herself at her next thoughts. A friend of mine, another honorary brother from my childhood, lives in Spirane. He is an honorable man and he speaks highly of his mountain home. Once he ventured into the plains of Asteraia. I have never seen him so uncomfortable when speaking about others. For the first time in their interaction, Taika’s face fell, and her tail stopped its constant swaying. There are rumors around that pack that are concerning at the best of times.Silence fell between the two for a moment. Taika remembered when Tithe had learned what he did about the plains pack. He had asked her for help, help to rescue children. She shook her head and visibly brightened as their conversation shifted to the gypsies. Once more her feet began to move. Instead of racing around Coquette, she bounced on the ground, her tail in the air and eyes looking up at her friend.

There is a group of wanderers, roamers, and rovers. Our paws never settle, but our hearts grew lonely. We travel together if we choose, stay behind if we want. We always know where to find a friendly face and a warm place to sleep. She moved around Dream Weaver, excitement demanding more motion out of her body. We are of like mind and spirit. Not ready to call one place home, or we just have not found it yet. We watch out for each other.

She thought of the group that had currently answered her call. The spirit loyalty that connected them had been surprisingly strong. As her eyes looked over her possible adopted sister she wondered if the same feeling stirred in her. The desire to see the world, explore its mysteries, and move on to continue chasing the wind. Whether the free-spirit was alive in Coquette or not, there was something for more important on Taika’s mind if indeed this other female was going to be her spirit-kin.

What do you believe changes the seasons and moves the stars? She stopped her movements in front of the other lady, head tilted curiously. You are a dream weaver, and your brother a dream chaser, what do dreams tell us?
