She sat in the crook of a tree, lazily sipping from her water skin. The calm of the forest sunk into her flesh and she smiled. She should have been hunting ground ward, but sometimes she just liked listening to the music of Caiyha's children...the hunt could always come later after all. A bright blue warbler sang to her lightly and Tinnok did a petch poor job trying to mimic the sweet little avian creature, her voice cracking every now and then until she laughed and ceased her efforts. The bird didn't seem to mind either way, and sat upon her shoulder, their thoughts melding as she got an aerial view of a new part of the wilds and the bird took comfort in the fact that it couldn't be eaten while sitting on the Witch's shoulder.
A crackle below in the jungle sent the warbler flying off and put Tinnok on alert. Just because most of the dangers of the jungle were gone in light of her Gnosis made her anything but actually safe with things like DHani and her own petching comrades...Remembering the events of the spring made Tinnok shudder. She had heard the rumors circulating about a traitor in their midst and it was only a matter of time before those dark eyes turned to her...the petching snake.
But those were thoughts for another time, and Tinnok frowned as she noticed a sleek black body slowly making its way through the foliage below. That petching Kelvic, Zurenai didn't know when to quit. He was like a lost kitten and Tinnok had gotten rather sick of it...his strange eloquent speech and they way he looked at her...though admittedly she liked admiring his body. Pah, that was neither here nor there.
She knew that she could hide int he tree and the Kelvic would surely pass without seeing her...but she was too annoyed to think in a stealthy manner, and leaped down from her perch, both hands gripping a low hanging branch and arcing her body up and over, tumbling to the ground behind the cat and righting herself...more or less with a bit of grace.
"Enough of this Kelvic, if you want to go hunt, hunt far away from me, you here? Just cause I'm letting you stay at my hut don't mean we're friends."
And then she suddenly realized that this cat...was not Zurenai, by then, however...it was too late.
