At the densest section of the forest, there is a brief clearing where a steady flow of water streams down the slippery stone staircase. The water here is cool and refreshing. Staircase Falls has been rumoured to be the place where reality is met by magic; where peaceful spirits dwell. They are rumoured to have healing powers that are used to help the desperately hurt, though no one has experienced this, except for, perhaps, Kaive.

 Hellene had expected fear - for this pup was obviously abandoned - why else would she be curled up asleep in the wide open land? She could understand an adult leaving their kin alone, especially to go hunting for food, but only if the pup was safe - in a den, or hidden cavern. And an orphaned pup? Well... the world was a big and scary place... a difficult world to grow up in. Something that Hellene was well aware of, especially considering how many difficulties she, herself, had faced. But to digress - she had expected fear... and it was fear that she got. The pup scrambled away from her, lids opened wide as the pup frantically examined her surroundings. 'Y-You're not o-one of them?' Hellene cocked her head slowly and paused, her maw partly open as she tried to figure out exactly what the pup was asking. "Excuse me, hunny? One... one who? You're going to have to be more sp..." 'Dead.' Hellene's maw shut and slowly she shook her head, before vehemently shaking it faster. "No, no, no darling. I am not dead. I am alive and so are you, but you will not be for long if we do not get you somewhere warm, and get some food in you." Slowly, Hellene approached the pup and reached out with her nares, hoping to nuzzle the pup trying to comfort the frantic faeling, but not wanting to stress out the pup any more than was necessary. "How does that sound? Somewhere to warm up and get dry? A meal in your belly? I cannot say that I'm a skilled hunter, but I am very good at fishing... and it just so happens that trout love to swim upstream through these cascades. My name is Hellene, by the way. What's yours?" __________________________________________ ||Hellene|| ||I hold my own heart|| ||Aurora Borealis–Delta || ||Adult|| || Mother to Khaleesi, Destan || |
