Parted lips sighed a breath of relief as the heavens shed his tears upon her tired face. The multicolored canvas wilts as she relaxes under the gentle sprawl of water that ran down her features. Ears fluttered forward but then slowly dipped to a relaxed state, her shoulders drop and roll as her back arches so she could sit. She could feel the darkness crawling, ' I hold you ' the inner voice whispered as if about to sing a lullaby to herself. Her head rose higher so that as the rain droplets came down her body like small rivers, she could feel herself so in tuned with the earth. This land had so many wonderous places and things for her eyes to see and grace her melodies and songs to. A world she was born to relish and worship in. She was a divine daughter of this nature, of this land, of this earth and solace. Her breath that was released next sounded more like a unfinished tune as she caressed her body against the small swell of the storm that lingered.

Behind her were the looming figures of heaven-touching apexes that were now not only drenched in brilliant light from the morning rays but now also sparkling from the heavenly dews. Spikes of thin light impaled these giants in a bristling, moving line that if her eyes were open it would cause a squint. Swaddled around these apexes were necklaces of powdery firm snow. One could imagine that the air became arctic cold as they drew closer to them. The unmistakable scent of a seasonal change was heavy on the air that she breathed. The small wavering sounds of the changing winds that drew the rain to sway across the open landscape and dance away to some other territory that needed its thirst quenched causes her to stir her eyes open.

The landscape that was dry upon her arrival was now moist as her graceful toes calmly kneads into the earth below. ' I am here to hold you.. ' her melodic voice rang inside her head again. She spoke as if some divine creature, divine being could hear her as she nearly worshiped the ground she sat upon so gracefully. She could spend all day here, just witnessing the earth in its glory. And thus she would. Even as the rainfall had returned to where she had sat - she raises up with her face welcoming the new tiny springs of water that landed on her. Moments later her body moves on its own, nearly possessed one might say, as she wandered this area for awhile. Her entire body screamed as if she was one with nature, one with the world she was born into. After all that was what she was , one with all.

Hours passed of her dancing, frilling her body across the open landscape as if she was the wind itself. Finding what solace she could in everything this territory held for her to whisper her thanks for their beginnings and endings. The sun was the highest in the sky it could be. She would pause in her delight to take a drink from the small rainfall pools that littered the location. Crisp and fresh to her taste buds. A delectable delight to drink in, the taste was unlike any other source of water but not because of the location she was in, but because it came from the heavens themselves. Bi-colored orbs dance with a new found shimmer, time to continue her embarkment across the borderlands, the lithe woman moved in ease, again as if she was the wind itself trying to find a new land - a new spot - to rest and learn its patterns before moving again.

The sun starts to set, the once azure and cyan sky was now turning into a brilliance of golds, auburns, creams and dark plums. She found herself dancing upon a wilted tree of old, old due to its leaning nature and dark patterned grooves on its bark. This very tree looked as if lightning were a physical object, this would be it, the branches were etched and streamed out from its leaning trunk until the ends were barely noticeable from where she stood under it. Three steps back and to the right, the sun gloriously breaks himself between each of these bolted branches in shades of bonfire reds and subflare golds, rays of peaking blinding white gleam from the outsides and it startles her a moment before squinting to see past the branches of lightning bolts. But the sun in all his glory is too powerful to look at, and only seconds later is she forced to look away and dip her graceful approval to the Sun god himself, then and only then does the rays of shimmering splendor seem to wither and die just out of reach.

The sun was setting and it left a void within her as she witnessed this. Even though it was not her first time seeing a sunset nor a sunrise for that matter, it always made her feel as though she was watching a dear friend leave and walk away unsure of what tomorrow would bring for her and that friend. Her heart clenches inside her chest, toes dug into the moistened soils before realizing she was leaning on her toes to watch as the sun slowly disappeared before the earth and seemed to be swallowed up by it. She releases a heavy sigh she had no clue she was withholding, her body posture fixes and almost with a heavy displeasure does she look away from where the sun was once moments before. Sunspots in her eyes remained for the next couple of blinks, the hollow dark circle in her vision was not a displeasure to her, no, she welcomed the small momentary blindness that he gave upon her looking at his beauty. She embarks away from the wilted tree, heavy heart but her eyes shinned brighter as the sky grew dark. A new beauty would arise soon, one that was of her favorite pass times. The thousands of flittering gas filled dots would speckle the heavens, doorways she called them, romantic doorways to another 'beyond'.

The air started to chill upon her back as she walked further into the land beyond, She had by now nearly explored the whole location. But something was drawing her attention away from the earth herself, something in the distance not far off. ' breath through me...we'll keep the stars a light. ' she ushers herself to stand still, yet again embracing the world around her. She had ignored this distant blob of someone or something and focused on her mystical doorways above. ' I've got you..' melodic voice thrills from the emptiness of her mind. Her lips bubble and purse to allow a breath of hot air to escape her lungs, chest rolled gently as she took another deeper breath. This time she could taste the creature off in the dimly lit nightscape of the borders. But she did not draw them any attention, after all, the doors were gracing her right now and she whispered a sweet song for them to dance and swing to in this cold lonely night.

He knew that scent- the smell of mulberry and moss.

Anthonius had returned to the passage, for after the arrival of Dragos in such lands, he was curious and eager to see if anymore of the Savante family would be following in tow. There would be no lie in him saying he also wanted to ensure none of them were taken by other prides- especially his nieces. He knew how males were, how Kings were, and the thought of any of his family being claimed and forced away boiled his blood.

He would protect them, at all costs.

Night draws along the sky and Anthonius peers upwards at the twinkling stars as they start to emerge to his sight. He admires them, studying the patterns- connecting certain 'dots' in his mind to make up images. The weather was fair enough to him, Spring doing well to heal the lands from Winter. He studied this, too, as he trailed forward- but he was keen on following the scent of his Niece. She couldn't be too far ahead of him now.

His heart leapt when he found her figure ahead- and it was also a saddened smile that presented on his features as well. Seeing her made him miss his brother, Stefan, and with a sharp inhale he forced himself to push those thoughts away. @Silviana deserved him at his best and most present- not an Uncle mourning on the past.

"Do you see all the stars in the sky?" He voices aloud, announcing himself to her as his large paws aim to bring him closer, features relaxed and friendly as he observes his Niece. He does not stop far away, but rather attempts to near close enough to embrace her in a hug - if she allowed - for he had missed her, much like all of his family, and was grateful to all be back together again.

She swung her toes and paws up and down, her body seemed to be taken over by the nature of the world, she would move her head around, left and right, bobbing down and up to the heavens again as her shoulders rolled and moved her dancing under the banner of the heavens. She could hear the forefathers and mothers in her soul singing to her as she danced to them, danced to the world, danced to the nature of it all. Curvy body dips and spins ever so slightly to the invisible chanting tune in her head with eyes closed and mouth slightly parted as she drank the atmosphere through her fangs. ' we feel you...see you...hold you..' she then bowed her body down nearly touching the earth with her chest and neck, her chin taps the surface of the moisten earth before turning half clockwise and raising her cheek to face the heavens while the other seemed to 'close in' on the ground below. The world echoed her name, echoed her dance and enlightened her to go further in her merry ways.

Even as she danced her multicolored body never was stained by the earth that she moved atop of. Her mulberry perfumed body did though start to hold a little bit more of the wild that she was invoked upon though. The vines around her neck danced and dappled up and down, the stones clanked as they gently hit one another her in subtle dancing. Well, subtle was what she aimed for but surely she probably looked possessed by something. As she dipped her legs and allowed her shoulders to sway her one way and then the other, her hips side stepped her to the left and she spun elegantly around on her heels. Ahh she loved the stars, the heavens, the earth. She loved it all. It was moments like this that made her feel as though she was made from something bigger. That she was meant for something bigger. Dearest Maua though not her direct divinity had still embraced her lovingly as though she was a daughter of Amaryllis. And the woman would greatly show her reply and emotions each night for such a rarity and treat to behold. ' me and my shadow shall whisper the names of old... we feel you and gently welcome you as you have welcomed us. ' the soft murmur echos again as an invisible sounding set of twigs clashing against themselves in her head start to take hold. It was as if the nature around her was creating music to let her continue to dance.

The doors opened and would dance with her as the sun died out completely and allowed their beauty to shine so brightly against the dark navy blues and soul-eating black tones of the heavens. Her bi-colored orbs were alight with merry feelings as she wandered forth. The air cooled even more and she was starting to feel drowsy after all this walking she did. Her nose would twitch yet again to the scent on the air, this time as it drew nearer she would realize that this was no stranger, no face without a name. This was family. She rose her figure, to not stand on edge but more so stand at a welcoming poise. Her heart stammered eagerly to await whom this family member was. And upon them getting closer with the familiar gruff male tones, she knew exactly who her welcomer tonight was, none other than her dearest uncle. She would swing her body to comb up from the earth and nearly lean to stand up, but not fully as she spun yet again elegance in her step to where he was to meet her.

She would dance a few more steps before bowing her head in tow of her movements ' for I must now...but again tomorrow we shall meet ' she whispered a sweet reply to nature and the heavens. The doors seemed to sparkle in understanding. She would let her hips drop and her right leg moved out from her body while her left front leg moved under her and she gracefully snaked her way to her uncle, a slight laugh echoed within her voice as she opened her eyes to grace the appearance of her dearest uncle Anthonius. He was a brown shaded male with fawn like speckles that littered his pelt, she was always envious of such splattering's across his body. His white limbs were stark against the pitchness of the world in its current reality. Which was like a beacon for her to follow in her own invisible turmoil. The curvy woman yet again giggles under her breath, taking in his arid scent as her ears flicker from their positions to one of attention.

@Anthonius was a proud male figure head in her family, she didnt remember much of her father as of late, but she did instead look back at her uncle as being the step-in-father of her life. Which she was proud to say that, she just never told the man that she considered him in that manner. His question was one she wasn't sure immediately on how to take, was it a question or more of a remark if she did. So she gracefully turned into his body, face plummets into his thick mane as she rolled her chin into his cologne, one that she always held to high regard and dearness of. "Ourselves can see all things dearest uncle." she informs him with a humble tune in her voice. It was soft and tender and barely spoke loud enough to echo the now growing cold landscape. By now she would stop her movements to stand and not dance. But she would dance again later, after all she had not finished her trance for the heavens and earth tonight yet. But for now family was important and second to the nature she relished upon daily.

She would roll her snout up so that her head now crested just under his chin, her tail dipped and bent half way before curling at the end and tick tocking behind her curvy body. It swats to the left of her as she closed her eyes in her embrace to her uncle. "Ourselves have been traveling far for many mother-moons dearest uncle. Ourselves have seen many things that are not just the doors above but falling ones and ones that are no longer there." she stated about the seemingly dying stars in her journey. She had no idea if they had really died or shifted due to the seasonal change, but she knew that the ones loving stars she called her own were no longer in the same spot in the sky and new stars had aligned there in their place.

Her mind was at ease and silent while she was with any family member, her knees dipped to allow herself to comb around the front of Anthonius's body and circle around to the other side before turning back around, much like a cub would do their mother and father upon greeting them after a long day away, before standing still and finally looking at his face. "Why uncle you seem to bare some thoughts in mind? Yes?" perhaps he was going to chastise her for being out here alone and unattended by the males of their family. But by now he should have known her tendencies to embark on mother nature and explore her sincerely with wide eyes. That or perhaps he came to enlighten her about where he had been for so long, after all the scent that she loved so dearly now clung with other smells that she was familiar and yet not with. Did they finally find a place to belong in the lands of Maua and Amaryllis itself? Interest now piqued across her canvas as the sterling lights above continued to twinkle and shine.

There was no surprise from @Silviana , but rather an open welcome in which Anthonius accepted happily. He was a man who thrived with family- and he always made it a goal to be close to each and every single person related to him, or shared the Savante name. His nieces and nephews had a softer spot to him, because the brute longed for children of his own one day. Unlike some men in their family, he was keen to the idea of waiting for his lifemate, saving himself for her. The truest show of his love, by loving her and being loyal to her without having even met yet.

He had faith she was out there, he had the belief.

Smiling onto the appearance of his niece, he listens to her voice with an easy expression. She was always so curious, so interesting- he'd often enjoy long conversations with her just to hear and see her perspective of things. She was always so soft, too, and he could bet he would never hear a yell come from her lungs.

Embracing her back, he finds comfort in the familiar scent of his family, nudging his head along her forehead as she buries into his mane. "Falling ones?" He questions this with a slight tilt of his head, she was always a master with her words- and often he could piece it all together. But what had she meant by falling ones? Hearing her question and with them now face-to-face, he sighs softly to her. "Scolding you is your father's job. I wish to just collect you and bring you to safe lands- the Savante of taken up in the driest of terrains, a desert that holds a vast Oasis. I think you'll have fun exploring it." He informs, nodding his head along with his words to show he actually believed them too. "A good amount of us have settled there now, is it just you? You are alone, or is anyone else traveling with you?" He inquires then, waiting patiently for her response while his gaze goes back to studying the stars above, appreciating them.

She giggled to herself at his questions, and @Anthonius was always the one she enjoyed being with conversational wise. " yes fallen ones. Stars." she delicately used her tail to whip up and around and then point directly to the sky with a firm nod of her head. She flinched around for a moment, testing the ground before coming to stand still again when he asked if she was alone "Ourselves are just here we are afraid. Left alone, with just the mind and the dirt beneath ours feet. " she giggled before taking a dirty paw and toeing at his chest. A giggle echoed out from her snout " This place you speak of Anthonius... is it far?" she wondered.

(sorry for the delay and short posting reply).
