┼ Achilleus ┼

The ebony colored fae arrived in the beautiful Bunshi lands, her thick, soft floating in the wind, her tiny, white pads walking in the muddy ground that was the land's. Every since spring had come, everything was always full of mud and wet, to the fae's dismay. She hated getting dirty, unless it was in a battle, and loved looking her best at most times, but with the mud, it was hard to do so. She was currently searching for a place to clean herself off, some kind of dry place, or a small patch of water she could wash it off with, would be even better. Even if the fae tried to lick off the dirt, it was difficult, as it was all hard from drying in the shining sun, and whenever she'd walk, the small female would get dirty all over again.

Achilleus sighed, letting herself flop down in the dirt. So what, if her fur got all dirty? It wasn't like she was clean, anyways. Besides, what was the point of it? This place was so empty, so weird, she didn't think anybody had been here for years, except her, obviously. Yet, something had attracted her here. Something had made her want to come to this strange place. Not knowing why, the fae sighed once more, got up, and began walking walking once again. It wasn't like she had anything better to do, anyways. Achi had no life, and so she could do as she wished. She had not yet found any friends, nor had she gotten many encounters since she'd escaped from those bad humans. Never in her life did she want to see one of those again, and hopefully, she never would.

After a long walk, the fae came upon a small lake, which was indeed quite pretty. The water was shimmering brightly, and that, made it look even better. Achilleus approached slowly, jumping in once she got closer. The lake felt pretty cold, but her thick fur protected her from freezing. Progressively, the dirt began to come off the fae's coat, making it become soft once again. She swam for quite a while, enjoying the swim she had longed for so much. The fae began to grow hotter as she exercised, and as the afternoon sun became hotter, as well. Finally, she got out of the water, finding a patch of grass next to the lake to lay on, where the water had washed away the dirt, so she could take a rest and stay clean, while her fur dried. Soon, Achilleus drifted into a soft sleep, which could easily be awoken at any noise, since she was not very tired. She had only been freed from humans a few weeks ago, yet had already regained her healthy self, very energetic and hardly ever tired. Her afternoon nap was mostly from boredom, as she had nothing to do, and had to wait until she dried before going anywhere, otherwise everything would stick to her annoyingly, and make her all dirty again.

Achilleus awoke only a few hours later, possibly less than that, getting up as if she had never been asleep. She was wide awake, dry, and ready to run around once more. While she had slept, the fae had dreamed of becoming the alphaess of these lands, and had decided she would try to do so. Perhaps she would try to find a mate, to help her, but for now she would run this on her own. After all, how hard could it be? Achi knew how to fight, so she could defend her territory well from most creatures, and would probably not get herself in too much trouble. Plus, she knew well enough who she could trust, and who was off limits. So, why not take this chance? These were pack lands, and she was the only one here. If she didn't claim them, the fae knew she'd regret it forever. So, letting out a howl, telling each and every creature that dared approach, that this was her land, and that nobody would get in unless they were worth it. Then, Achilleus began walking once more, in her newly claimed lands, wishing to explore every little part of them.
