Something is shifting…I can feel it in my bones. The path was long, the trees endless. Why keep walking when you know you’re going to end up right back where you started? Something inside me, pulling onwards. The branches above her hushed with wind, and she raised her face to the sky, feeling the breeze in her fur, captivated by the complete silence that she was met with, ears straining against her will. The skies turn faster than ever, my eyes a little blurry. She blinked a few times and began to trot faster through forest, as if awaking from a dream. How long had she been asleep? Keep moving, keep moving. What am I even looking for? Suddenly, a jolt in her gut made her stop, freeze against the suddenly still night air. A presence…a close one. A familiar one. And it was coming from off the path. Ears up, hesitate. Do I dare? Yes. I do. First step. Two forces, pulling away from eachother Do I? Second step Pressure became pain Fog became sun The path becomes a distant wish Beyond reach now Circles, cycles, circles. And then. just in her sight now, a future. A home. She smiles and begins again.
Thank you for taking the time to read my silly writing <3 I appreciate you! Feel free to ask if you want to rp! Explanation/Lore - Shy has been wandering the Dark Forest for many moons now, occasionally breaking her cycle with the interruption of a loved one or familiar face, but always returning to the path centered in the forest. But when a mysterious presence stronger than all other made itself known (rp relevant), she found the strength to wake up and begin again. As a result of her clear mind, she will be able to see much more of her living family than usual. This took place a few weeks ago, before she started training her grandchildren in the dark forest.
