| As the wings of darkness fully open and overshadow the great sphere of fire that had kept night at bay for many long hours and is replaced by the more deceivingly gentle moonlight, another figure passes the final boundaries that had, and would continue to protect the outside world from the Darker Sins. It’s interesting, though, that when one thinks of ‘evil’ their imagination runs wild with tall figures in dark cloaks, or, in this case, a black panther, probably obsessed with death or the delight of inflicting pain to another, but every thought skitters away from the thought that it might be the child with the gun in his or her hand. No, youth is believed to be the only short time when a heart is innocent enough to be shielded from those nightmares, which makes the thought of an evil babe all the more disturbing. And so it is with the tired, almost forlorn creature that trespasses with so little apprehension. The details on the small, long body are still rounded, yet to become the smooth, muscular lines of a full-grown caracal. Weariness aside, the youth still moves with the natural grace of any feline and easily accommodates her step for the rough, unforgiving terrain, detouring around the scattered remains of some beast, probably felled by the hungry jaws of another with no second look. She’d seen it all before. The hide protecting the bones beneath was lined with thick fur the color of a tin can that had finally worn down after battling the elements and was left rusted. But if you lost yourself in those large steel blue eyes and tried to untangle the knot of thought and memory in that vast mind, what would jump at you first, you ask? Ha, ha, nice try, but nothing, at least not in this lifetime, is that easy. No, those inner thoughts will be kept just that, at least until you lovely people come and decide her fate, no? |
