Róvanfaer carefully picked his across the plains of Kamari and into the lands of Acerbus. As soon as his paw touched Acerbus, the wolf paused with his ears flattening against his skull. The young wolf stood there momentarily gazing in this familiar yet dissimilar land with dejected, unfocused eyes. Would it be like this all the time for him? Was Róvanfaer just torturing himself by living with this pack? Gritting his teeth the brute trudged forward making his way through Acerbus by passing Drarynough. He didn’t wish to visit the lake today. It was one of the last places Róvanfaer had been with Exodus before… before everything took a turn for the worse. It amazed the wolf how everything could be so similar to how he remembered, yet completely different all at the same time. How often had he passed by this exact spot? Tussled with his siblings here? Hunted there? It was nothing but a painful reminder of what never would be. Shaking his head slowly, Róvanfaer continued through Acerbus taking his time. He was in no hurry to arrive at his destination. At last the Kiaou Mines came into view. Rovan’s paws carried him by memory rather than will. His green eyes were set upon the ground as he worked his way to the entrance of the mines. There at the threshold of the entrance, Rovan paused peering deep into the darkened cavern. He swallowed before taking a hesitant sniff at the air. Disappointment registered upon his face. He shouldn’t have expected anything less. Sighing, the scared brute crossed into the dens of Salen… no Descai. “Get it together, Rovan,” he murmured quietly to himself padding through the mines. Everything seemed relatively untouched here. Outside, the lands changed with the season as death and growth occurred. Here, in this home of rock and dirt, there was little to change the interior. Róvanfaer took in another deep breath testing the air for Descai members. He was uncertain, but there didn’t appear to be anyone around. It was possible that he had missed someone, however. A whirlwind of information temporarily locked down his brain after scenting the dens. There were so many unfamiliar smells inside. Rovan half wondered if he would ever meet all of the wolves of Descai. There seemed to be so many of them. Plopping his butt down, Róvanfaer sat just inside the mines looking about the place. Where should he visit first? Hesitantly, the brute got up to his paws and traveled forward into the darkness finding his way around easily enough. It didn’t take him long to discover the one chamber he sought. However, instead of finding the scent he wished, there was another to replace it. Róvanfaer did not enter Vorilye’s chambers but instead sat just outside of them looking in. The black Alpha was not here, thankfully. How would he explain that away? Oh sorry sir. I was just milling around and happened upon you. The wolf gave a snort disturbing some of the dust along the ground. Giving his father’s chambers one last look, Róvanfaer stumbled away and into the different areas of the Kiaou Mines. Nothing else sparked his interest, although there was the one spot with the faded scent mark. He couldn’t be sure, as it could just be his mind playing tricks, but it could have possibly been Meridian’s scent. Traveling back closer to the main entrance of the den, Róvanfaer circled three times and laid his body along the ground. His paws tucked in under his stomach as his tail cross his nose forming a large pile of fur. The young wolf gave a single whimper before drifting into a light sleep. This would be harder than he thought. There had to be something around here that could distract him. |
