The little girl was out exploring. Winter was a brutal time of year for everyone and she knew it was hard on her mother. She wasn’t sure where her father had gone off too, but he had taken Midna along for the rid as well leaving just her, Scarlett and their mother alone. It was hard, this winter would change all of their lives she could feel it down in her very core that while her uncle Amoxtli had fended off the ‘white witch’ as her mother called her from the forest. Still there was this foreboding feeling that Grandmother wasn’t going to make it. This was her very first winter and she was enjoying it! But her Grandmother… she worried so much for her and she loved her so much she didn’t want to see her go.

The little mahogany and tan girl stood out like a sore thumb. Much more than her black and white friend who was close in two. Astraea was quickly becoming her most trusted friend they had already had an adventure into the free lands together and this was just one more to the list! Her bright teal eyes scanned the land as her slightly mottled form traveled though the snow. It was so cold, even though her fur had thickened up everyone in her family sported a mostly thin to average coat length so she was less protected than most. She needed a break, she wanted to continue exploring the lands but shelter was needed. Raea you see any place to go? She asked to her little companion, her tail keeping close to her as to provide a little more warmth as she kept going towards the crags.

She had never been her before, and it was one more place off the places she needed to visit in Moladion to get to know all these lands the best. She was a child of destiny even if she didn’t know it. Entangled in something that was far greater than what most knew, but everyone saw it. While she still held some of her child innocence she was far brighter than what a child her age should have been. When she reached the crags relief feel upon her. The wind broke by the large stones. It was difficult for her to traverse and she wasn’t sure where they should duck down for a bit of a break. The forest girl however was just happy for a moment’s break. She gave a little sigh when she heard someone speaking not far away. It was obviously a girl and she sounded happy. Curious she looked to Astraea with her bright teal eyes before going to investigate.

She found the little crevice and peered down into it, blinking lightly as she noticed the other fiery colored girl didn’t have company that she could tell. It didn’t mean no one was there though Astraea spoke with the stars now and then, they were her friends so Zelda didn’t judge others when they spoke to things she couldn’t either she just figured they had another way of listening that she didn’t and she understood other things they didn’t. It was all fair.

”Hello?” Zelda started giving a moment for Astraea to chime in if she wanted. She didn’t do introductions just yet, she wasn’t afraid of this girl but her mother had taught her to be wary of new wolves just in case. She didn’t worry about herself but like many in her bloodline she wouldn’t risk her friend’s safety over some curiosity.
