I did not want to be there. I could not stay there. My siblings are creatures with black hearts, evil souls who do not hold honorable values. They do not love family and cherish life. I can see right through any facade that my brother puts on to try to convince others of having any sort of good nature, and my sister doesn't even try to hide it. At least with her, I can admit that she does not lie through her teeth. I will give her that. Let them have their land. I can only hope that they are kind leaders to their followers, and treat them with a respect that they refuse to show their own brother. I wish only for a good relationship with my siblings, but it is they who refuse me. My best course of action is to leave, to never go back to Glorall and hope that I never encounter them again unless they have a chance of heart. Thus, I plan to never encounter them again.

Pan has left to go figure things out. To figure out his options. I am now here with my Everchime. I am not particularly...comfortable being out in the lands with no law or order. It is in these types of land that I have lost my eye and my ear. These places are dangerous, and I do not want Everchime getting hurt. She is my light in the dark. I want to make sure she is safe from the ones who wish others harm. I am not sure what she wants though, because in the end, I want to what she wishes. I want her to be happy with the place she lives at. I want her to have a home where she can raise the puppies she adopts in peace and harmony. I want to protect her from the things that have cause my own physical deformities. Glorall, was not safe though. This I know for certain, and as much as I am on edge here, I am more comfortable than in the lands ruled by tyranny.

My dark silver paws are careful with each step. I hold my dark, tall form flecked with white close to Everchime. Mortz, a boy very important to Everchime, had run off in the direction of Diveen. If he goes to Diveen, I know he will be safe, and I wish him to be safe too, since what is important to her, is important to me. I can tell how much she cares for the younger boy, and I know that Everchime has a heart unlike that of my siblings. I can only wonder, how my own heart is. I am told that I am good, but is that reality?

I enjoy being so close to her. It makes me... feel as I have never felt before. As much as I am nervous walking in the free lands, I feel better simply being around her. I sigh softly as I walk closely, feeling so...right next to her. Why did I ever leave her? I...I still feel unworthy, but I know now I must do everything to keep her safe and happy. There is a stream near by, and I find my body going towards it. We are no longer near Glorall, and I feel a bit safer here to rest and quench some thirst. My one good eye searches for Everchime, motioning forward towards the water ahead.

"You...thirsty?" I say softly, almost warily as I wonder what she wishes to do. I can tell that my body is still tense, still worried about being in a land without law, without honor. My ear twitches with every shake of a bush, or wind in the trees. I just...never know if someone is going to try to rip us limb from limb. I will start to head towards the water if that is what she wishes, but I hope to bring up soon how important it is that we find a home for her to be safe in...to just...find the words. I never know what to say, how to say them. It takes me so long to think...maybe once we get a drink, I will be able to articulate it...hopefully.
