    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    Don't be afraid when the night wolves cry,
    feast on their bones, suck the marrow dry.
    He has a friend now, how touching.

    Rapture had been his friend, once. A sister, a twin - the only friend he ever thought he might need. But their separation had been brusque and unexpected, he’d also been too young to understand that only time together could forge a solid bond. It’d been years since he’d seen his family and the idea seems almost foreign to him; only memories of gentle interactions remain where a loving, warm feeling should be. “A mock,” He relays, “just two horses fighting for bragging rights.”

    It’s the most accurate explanation he can manage.

    “Fantastic!” Longclaw exclaims once she accepts, exhaling a nervous breath he’d been unaware was building up. “Three days give or take, unless you have a quicker method of traveling. The Forest and the River can house us, and -” He pauses, flashing a toothy grin in her direction before his body shudders and snaps. He hunches, draws his head into a heaving blue chest, and collapses inward to shift into wolf. The process is disturbing; the result: astonishing.

    The now silver-grey canine turns a jade eyes to Ajatar, saying, “- if you don’t mind, I prefer to travel like this.”

    On stalkish legs he turns about, the sweep of his whiplike tail distressing the seashore flora about them. A passing glance is thrown behind; Ajatar filling up his senses before he pads away to the border of their shared home.
