AuroraElis
The pair bid the twins, Amen and Crucis good bye before they embark on their journey. Her ears flick to Jack as they shuffle along the newly fallen snow. It is thin and whisps up as the tips of her feathers brush along the ground.
She leads the way, just slightly in front of Jack. Winding their way through the smaller mountains along their base. "How are you feeling today?" She asks kindly, knowing he has been having a hard time of things lately.
They pass through a small crop of pine trees before it breaks into a clearing just before the river. Her navy eyes look knowingly across the still running waters, the area was just beyond here.
Thankfully the waters were much lower than her first crossing here. Barely wetting her canon bones as she steps lightly into the waters. Forcibly, she lifts her shoulders to try and prevent her gown from dragging too much as she crosses.
The winters chill does not subside as they step onto the other bank. If anything, it intensifies slightly.
"Over here," she says as she trails off and heads towards the tree line. "This is where she was when we found her," stepping to the side, she aligns herself as Escence was that day. Looking up now, her eyes focus on the area before her, and her legs soon follow in the same direction.
"Hmmm..." She ponders aloud. Remembering what Escence had said floods back to her now.
Not all that glitters is gold
