I couldn’t always stay in Glorall, no, I couldn’t. Eden’s presence is an irritating thing. So irritating. There is darkness in him, yes, darkness, and my Solaris is gone. Gone gone gone. Just like Roamin, Lillith, Andras, and Aithne. All gone. But Eden and I wait. We wait but I can’t stay by him, no, and thus I go. I go and today I am here.
I left Roamin in safe place and I don’t carry him with me on this day. I move my slender black legs along the field. I am attracted to a certain scent but I don’t know why. It leads to Asteraia. But the scent is interrupted. My nose dives into the dirt without hesitation. My yellow eyes are wide. Scent of another. Wolf. Yes, wolf. Male Wolf. Close.
I snort. Dirt is on my nose as I lift my head and move in a quick trot towards him. I lift my head over grass and I see him. The sun was going away soon. A cycle that never ends. The sun always comes back from the dark. My Solaris will come back one day. But today I see someone I do not know.
I march up to him. My black fur is short and messy. My eyes are wide and bright. Some would say they are crazed naturally. I march up and I do not hesitate to stick my nose into his left shoulder to sniff him. Alone. He is alone.
”Alone alone alone,” I say as I tear myself from him and begin circling him. I do not stare at him as I circle though. I smell with my dirty nose to the ground. Alone, yes, no other scents...no other. I stop my circle, hunched over, head out, eyes upon him.
”We all end up alone, yes, alone…” I say, one of my eyes twitching closed every now and then. I growl as I hear the voice of mother Lillith wanting to tell me how unworthy I am and my ears fold back. ”No you...you go away,” I say in a whisper, my eyes seeming to look through the male before focusing in on him again.
”Yes, why alone? How alone?” I inquire, closing my eyes hard for a second and shaking my head before looking back at him again for an answer.
