Ilka raised her head to the wind. The winter-like chill had dispersed, and it left them with a land that was springing back to life.
Her journey was so long that her legs ached for rest. Her muscles were growing weak,
and she could walk no more. She could sense these were discovered lands, but against
her better judgement, she did not continue on.
Her drawn-out walk faltered and she was left standing - like a stick in the mud.
Her eyes took in the surroundings. The moon had just made it's peak but it was
still positioning itself in the night-driven sky; signaling the ending to another day.
Her audits flicked back and forth as the nocturnal creatures would soon be wandering about.
Ilka took in a deep breath, and let her nostrils flare as they omitted a harsh snort.
She wasn't letting her guard down, not now, as she knew better. She was only lost in thought.
This was noting new to her. Ilka could often be seen wandering about with her eyes so very distant.
She lived in her mind - always thinking. Her mind constantly ticking like an old grandfather clock.
Nothing in the world to see or do, just think of it all. An outsider looking in, another mind to keep the world guessing...
She shook her head as sleek velvets parted. ''Oh, enough of it'' erupted a faint voice.
She looked around as her thoughts quickly engulfed her despite her attempts to stop them.
Where exactly had she landed herself? After years of walking alone she had seen and taken in
various locations..but this one was rather..different. In such a funny way it seemed..almost.. inviting?
Possibly a snappy trick of a devious clan? A real oasis? Another territory?
What would they think of her bombarding in?
All her life, she ran from others. The trust was just never there, so she avoided them all at any cost.
Though deep down, the thought of coming face to face with another of her own kind became exciting to her.
She could not deny this.
Ilka was sure to hurt herself had she not closed her eyes in mid-drift.
Whoever was around, be it anyone, would meet her at her most vulnerable state...or was it?
