Winter was nearly over and I have to say it brought upon some interesting changes. I use the word interesting only because I see how my sister’s belly grows wider and wider and I can only guess who the father is. I head of her scuffle with Leonidas at the borders he finally got what he deserved yet I feel she sought him out again. I know I can’t really say who my sister does and doesn’t see but after so many times of him hurting her how could she? I smelled him on her the day she came back from the freelands yet he is not here. Surprised? Hardly the bastard someone took advantage of her in the winter hormonal fury and while I never thought I would see the day she would succumb to that well. Her and Leo did have a history.

I had to leave Spirane get away from seeing her and the mountains. That wasn’t all though. Natu had taken my sire for a mate and I worried for her. She was close to my sister and a loyal wolf of Spriane and she too had a growing stomach. Half siblings of mine filled her and I worried that they would have much the same fate I had. Abandoned. Though I hoped Natu would at least stay with them. I wasn’t sure if my father left if she would be driven to follow leaving her newborn pups as he had done me. He says it wasn’t his choice, but it had been, he could have waited. While all I hoped for was for my soon to be born half siblings to have more luck than I had with him I still had my skepticism. I couldn’t bear myself to be around them right now, I told Daenerys my side. If he stayed by Natu’s side I was more than content for him to be around and father his children. I was over my hate, but my own fatherly instincts had taken hold of me and I only want hat is best for those children. Natu and Daenerys’ and I knew I would likely be ‘father’ to those pups Leo had impregnated my sister with and I was fine with it, better perhaps they never see their true father ever in my brain, better I be their ‘father’ I had experience I had raised pups before I was certain I was better than Leonidas ever could be.

Still though I needed a break from it all…

I followed my instincts which led me far away to the Crags. It had been some time since my paws laid on the uneven rock that was like home though not. I think I know what brought me so far out and away. I could feel her out here somewhere though why she was here was anyone’s guess. I do not think she has been to her old home of Diveen to join back in with her family I think she was some type of Free spirit though she had changed and grown much since the time I had seen her as a yearling. Perhaps my imprinting on her then had changed her and caused this. Often imprinting would cause such a change in a wolf perhaps I had brought upon the change that she had now for she had vanished shortly after our bond had been forged.

I let my golden and russet form move so easily over the edges. I will find her, guided as I am by her soul calling to me there was no way I couldn’t. I just needed something I guessed anything to give me some sort of peace before the storm. I was certain there were several storms to be had in the coming spring after all I was as sure as the bird songs that would soon refill the woods. This was the peaceful times for me. It was best I take advantage of it.

”Iophiel.” I called, my song like voice going over the rocks carrying about the slightly snow covered area. I was certain she would hear me but I could only hope she would reveal herself and come.
