She was fucking gone. Gone totally and completely. Exalted could not find her. The first few nights it didn't seem that big of a deal but when it dragged on and on... she felt a sick pit of worry in her gut. Nosebleed's premonition and Andraste's own omen told to her left her feeling sick. What if the red bird had gotten her? What if it wasn't even one of their own but an unknown force? Any scent trails that the woman had left were long gone. Exalted had nothing to go by. What would happen to Sanatorium if she were gone?
She pulled her lips back from her fangs into a grimace, half anger and half fear. She wanted to rip into something, but there was nothing here in the cold desert sands. Nothing, as she wandered southward towards nothing. Would she have to take up the mantle? To keep everything going smoothly while Mother was... gone?
She refused to think the worst.
Death would not bring her here only to kill her. No. She was alive.
She stopped walking, feet away from a strange contraption that stood on the outskirts of the town. Everything here was foreign. Was weird and strange. It nearly drove away the worry in her gut with its strangeness. What was this place?
She walked up to the thing in front of her, the well (though she did not know the name for it) and sniffed it and the rope and bucket. After a moment when it did nothing, she walked around it and into the town proper. There were weird wooden structures, straight and tall and somewhat dilapidated. Foreign symbols were scrawled across some and one in particular... the entrance hung on rusty hinges that blew partially open in the wind. Exalted felt no fear, only intrigue as she wandered over to it.
Andraste would not fear this. She would be like her mentor and investigate.
She pushed her way inside the saloon and saw a place of tables and chairs, everything strewn around in a state of organized chaos. Glass bottles sat on tables and at the bar at the far end. She walked over to the bar and stood on her hind legs, sniffing at the bartop and then grabbing a bottle in her maw. What was all of this?
