Why was I doing this? The harsh laughter of Seline reverberates in my head and spurs me onward, my legs increasing their stride as I run with this pup in my mouth. I wanted to cry to him, to explain myself because I could tell he was fearful but it only served to make me even more fearful. The land stretches between us and Glorall, disappearing swiftly, and my panic begins to recede. Only I am now in the middle of nowhere with a pup hanging from my jaws. I slow my steps as I try to puzzle out where I am and what I should do. I can't take him back - Seline might be there or the alpha. They would kill me, for certain, and I was scared to die. I follow the scents of a few wolves, meandering back and forth until I somehow ended up on a trail that led tot he forest.
This was Taviora, I knew from what I've heard, and I was afraid to go in. They were nice. Yes, nice, and this puppy could be theirs. They would take care of it. Consoling myself to this fact I set him down abruptly, stepping back to not scare him.
