((Im just going to keep this in the winter timeline<3))
She stumbles quietly through the ice covered fields. Her body is numb with the settling realization that she is alone.
She is so, so alone.
Her mother had left her two full moons ago. What had become of her, Sefra had no clue. It was when the snow set in and the leaves died, that she decided to leave. She allowed what navigation she had in her mind to lead her where it may. She traveled in the day and slept hidden in the underbrush at night. The solace of winter offered her nothing but freezing temperatures, and abandonment. Deep in the small girl's heart, she hated her mother for leaving her. Though even deeper in her heart, there was forgiveness. Despair.
"I am so sorry!"
Sefra stops dead in her tracks, petal-shaped ears turning towards the voices. The octave of them suggested that they too were children.
Part of her screamed retreat, but a larger part begged her curiosity to light.
"Hello?"
She spoke, voice clear as she broke through a small line of trees. Before her stood three girls. They seemed to be around the same age as her, this was good. This was really good. She stared at them with wide eyes, dark tail curling around a shaking hind leg.
Two of the others had seemed to take a bit of a tumble and stood with anxious looks. The other stood a bit off, a worried look upon her delicate features.
"I didnt mean to interrupt."
