Kita trembled and turned slowly in a circle as she lifted her head high, ears strained as she was located Atvana, the one that she wanted to speak with. She knew that it would be able to help her, would be able to tell her if Furfur was returning. She turned and bound forward, racing over the terrain toward her destination. She skid to a stop, spotting the deer laying a few feet before her.
"Atvana." she stepped up beside her friend, watching as it turned it's gaze toward her. She shivered a little, it's stare was intense, drilling into the doe. She trembled as she shook her head, looking back at the deer before her
"I need to know, Furfur, is he going to come back home soon..?" she asked softly.
The smallest of smiles curled across the deer's face,
"Are you so sure he's left?" it asked her, voice even and calm keeping the eye contact with Kita.
She frowned confused and glanced away and down thinking, he might not have left. She glanced back the way she had come and turned a bit. Seshi had been Furfur before he had died. Is that what Atvana had meant? Seshi had come back so Furfur was inside him and had never left? She looked back to ask the deer what it had meant before frowning, it was gone.
A sigh escaped her lips before she turned, walking along back toward where she had left Seshi and his son.
