Freedom awaits if we have the key

I had grown much over the chillier season. Spring. It was something called summer now, it had grown hotter and I couldn’t say I liked it near as much as I did spring. The flowers were different now, I was different and I am noticing a great decrease in the time that I spend in the den. Mother is doing better too, she is stronger and she lets me wander farther, but not far enough to leave the lands just yet. Aeon made it out though, he ventured away while mother was distracted with me. I was okay with that, I loved my brother dearly after all and it sounded like he had a good time.

I wanted him close always, we shared blood, that was important but I knew I didn’t own him or could control what he did. He someday may grow away from me, but I hope he will always be there. I know my mother has no siblings that she speaks of, she says Father is related to the Alpha here, but she doesn’t want us to meet with him. I am not sure why. Family is both important and not. Mother wants brother and I to be close, to protect and help each other, she says she won’t be around forever.

Nothing will be, but one thing I knew was I would be loved until death, I was hers even after she died thanks to our blood. Right now though to escape the heat I stood letting the water and the waves splash me as they came upon the shore. I detested the feel of saltwater in my fur, so I never tread too far in, but I knew there was a land over the water that belonged to Glorall, and I wanted to go there someday. An island, that I could take as my own and do what I wanted. Unfortunately I enjoyed company quite a lot. A life of that much solitude would not be fit for me. I wanted to have friends that would never leave me, a mate that was loyal to me and also my soul. I didn’t know that mother lied, she told me she and father were each other’s everything, I didn’t know their souls had gone to separate beings. I wanted what they had and more…

Someday, I was still young, but I knew, like Aeon, I needed to start to wander the world see who I found out there, see if I could find my the one for me. My tail waved lightly at the thought, my bright pink and black circled eyes staring out at the island. Maybe I could fill that island with my family, my friends, make it a place just for mine and the worthy? They were dreams of a young girl, lofty ones at that, but they were things I thought I would want to do. Someday maybe.
