91 Winter, 513 AV
Near the Woven Gates
As Kalinor's harsh winter came to a close, so did the memories of winter's past. Of lonely longing, agony, and social isolation. Viridae once again pulled his sleek night leather over his head and wrapped his midnight blue scarf loosely around his neck. He could feel the lukewarm breeze of spring from above the woven gates as it rushed gently across his face, causing his newly short cut bangs to flutter gently across his forehead. The season had been long, and he did not visit the surface much, instead opting to delve into Kalinor's more social gatherings.
But winter was coming to a close, and it was time to get back to work. Viridae had heard rumors passed on by Ina Vine of a large mountain lion with a brilliant ginger coat. Such a fur would catch a hefty sum at The Bat's Head, perhaps enough for him to put a little away and take a few weeks off in the summer.
So in the morning he packed his gear, about three days worth of provisions to be safe, and headed for the woven gate. Not his usually exit from the city, but he was curious to see how much activity would be at the gate after the avalanche had been cleared, and now that he was here, he could see there was not much going on. He took a seat upon the edge of the gate's stone face and let his feet swing freely over the edge, enjoying the slight breeze before his long journey. The large cat was spotted deep within Kalea's mountains, and tracking it could take days.
