something I can sink my teeth into


THE THING IN YOU THAT FEEDS THE ANIMAL IN ME

There were still two seasons left before his third year, but Kharin was growing restless rather quickly. He knew he only needed to spend time with his father, express his interest in doing something with his life, and Rafe would provide a wide array of options to choose from. Maybe it was youthful defiance that kept him from doing so, but Kharin never approached his sire to talk about his future. Instead, he swam from the Badlands.

Unlike when his sister Encelia left the Badlands, Kharin met with his mother in the morning and told her he was going to visit another island, seeking potential places to live. He could see the brief flicker of sorrow touch her blue eyes, but he felt no guilt. They both had known the older he grew the more likely it was that he would find a place to live outside of the Badlands. Maybe it still felt as though it was coming too soon in his mother’s eyes, but to Kharin, it couldn’t come quickly enough. He felt behind where his other siblings were concerned, though most who had achieved something of themselves were older than he was. As much as it didn’t make sense for him to compare himself to them, he did.

He wanted a herd like Raegar’s; like Arsinoe’s was becoming now that she’d brought home that big bachelor and was going about the island gathering up his herd. He wanted to be strong; He wanted to be known.

Rather than swim to Crossing Isle and walk the distance to the direction the further islands lay, Kharin chose to swim for the one nearest Salem: Atlantis. As he climbed ashore he wasn’t aware which territory he had pulled himself upon, but wasn’t bothered by his lack of knowledge. If the land had as active a leader as he hoped to find, they’d come across a stranger prowling their shoreline rather quickly. Depending on how the meeting went, Kharin would learn what he could from them of Atlantis, of the other herds, and whether or not there was opportunity here for him lying within his reach.
