Moving swiftly she quickly disappears into the tree line using the dense tree’s and undergrowth to conceal her passing…

At ease in this environment she picks up the pace moving rapidly slowing infrequently…

As the moon crawls to its highest position in the sky she pauses briefly..untying her waterskin and drinking from it whilst watching the moon…..a melachony look settles on her face and for a few moments she looks confused….torn…..lost……..

Momentarily she goes to reach out elsewhere before stopping herself and instead systematically checking her walls remain solid and in place...

Retying her waterskin she gives her location one last look before quickly she moving on once more……..

Following at an easy pace slowling... pausing and hiding in the shadows whenever neseceray...
But soon enough she came to a halt, Fear Giver kept hidden within the shadows before taking off after Althea again... But this time her intentions to come up beside Althea and try to slow her.

Still her form that of a Dire-Wolf she catches up with Althea but has to slow her pace to match Althea's "Althea why do you run?" her question partly a growel both because of her form and her pace...

It didnt take long for blackmane to close in on fear giver, it was obvious that she was not running at full speed, by the time he caught up with her fear giver she sped up to reach althea, deciding it was best not to intrude blackmane kept a short distance between them , close enough for him to hear what was being said but far enough so as not to intrude.

Stopping in her tracks Althea looks up at the creature before her……a hint of recognition in her eyes hidden quickly…..silently..without word she takes up the pace again…ignoring the wolf and her question……

It was without question that Fear Giver would follow again...

"Althea..."

Her call stil a slight growel but this time Fear Giver ran to stand infront of Althea her intentions to bring no harm to the 'human' but then to make sure she brought no harm to herself...

Seeing the wolf infront her Althea changes direction and dissapears into some dense trees....

{fade into forest}

Sighing and following but now relying on her nose and ears rather than all of her sences to guide her.

"Althea, are you really that afraid of who you are... That afraid you run from your past, and also future..."

Still she followed any sign of Althea and Althea only, She knew Blackmane was close, and hopefully Cyrus also...

Blackmane ran silently behind fear giver, keeping close enough that she would be able to tell where he was but far enough that althea shouldnt be able to know he is there.

Stepping from behind a large tree Althea stands infront of the wolf….both hands gripping the hilt of her sword tightly….

“I’m not scared of either….I don’t like what I’ve become…what I’m forced to accept…..”

Her voice keeps a low steady tone her gaze does not shift from the form infront of her…..

Stopping blood red eyes trying to meet clear blue ones...

"You have much to acept yes... But look at what you have... Then what it would be if you never had anything..."

Tone still a slight growl, but now purely due to her form and nothing else.
