Amongst the flowers and grass, the maiden lay, strewn with a gaze that flittered from petal to petal that fell from the trees above. She lay beneath the canopy, quiet and in dismay. Ever since the death of Seaver, the maiden had been... reliving some grief and mourning the boy who had been too young to die in the first place. Still was her belly unsettled, unhappy but she had done as her Queen heeded and had not continued to drink from the poisoned waters.

Teodora could not help but wonder when the heart break might stop and happiness might conquer, instead.

She oft took these moments to herself outside the claim of Elkshire, seeking some solitude (or perhaps it was self-destruction, as she had done when Serpens had left her) to build herself up to hold a strong, inviting face for the other children and her Queen, if she needed it. With a soft sigh Teodora would reach one rounded paw to catch the leaf as it fell. ^^

Miriam roamed through the temperate, she could the faint sound of footsteps within the distance and from her place within the trees, she peered out. There was a woman in the distance, a soft fawn-like aura that smelled of the pack within the forest, although the maiden has heard of their name, she could not pin-point if it was truly them. She was bathed in light, someone who looked frail and holy to the touch that she couldn't help but look at twinkling eyes, as the leaves fell and she..

Roaming out, the woman smiled, "dance with me?" no introduction or so, but an atmosphere that brought the moonlit wolf close so, to twirl that leaf away from the other. A sprite of wind had caught, the falling of leaves continuing as she smiled, pittering-pattering her toes of invitation.

dance with me.

She had not danced since the valley when it had rained and she had asked the very same of the knight Serpens. Teodora's ghostly gaze glanced up to the girl who had requested her company, spying a body of lilac greys and white. Like her, she had ghostly depths though these were similar to the glisten of the moon.

Teodora almost declined, nearly allowing herself to wallow more than she was.

That wasn't... that wasn't who she was. Teodora was a social butterfly who thrived off of company yet with all the heartbreak that had battered her... she had fallen into a cacooon of grief. The maiden drew herself to stand upon her perch, coming to flounce towards the smaller girl with a warm smile, "lets." With the petals she moved, gliding to the maidens side and drew herself along it, curling her tail above her bodice as she moved.

Similar to the falling petals, Teo would arch and leap, a soft giggle escaping her lips. ^^

To bring another maiden out of any despair, was a destiny before them all. A bumping with her hips to the other, a drawing to let her run wild with the dancing of paws as the leaves fell around them. The caw of nature itself ; and the low humming from Miriam as she expressed the light song to match what was around. She remembered her time of dancing with the deer, and couldn't help but notice.. Their scents were vaguely similar.

Grays and whites were flashing with blue as the memory of one of her most meaningful dances tried to break free, Serpens where this young woman stood, dancing with her. To stave it away, Teodora shut her eyes as she moved, tilting her head to the sky as she hummed softly, adding her own gentle tune to the others own tune as they danced.

Teodora hadn't seen this girl before and truly, she wasn't entirely sure if she was decorated in colours that Celnes would be opposed to -- though perhaps not, given the fact she was not a body encompassed in white. The maiden allowed it to slip from her mind as she tried to let herself get lost in the moment. She span and opened her eyes, casting her ghostly stare upon the other as she bowed forward, brandishing her tail in the air to wave it gently before she moved once more, brushing her shoulder against the other as she slipped by. ^^

"The dance of life," she so coo'd in a songstress voice, as her banner waved and hips moved, "to enlighten any, and all, within it's grace." To enrich any spirit as so, and lighten their soul and heart. She would smile without a care in the world, for Miriam felt she was the pinnacle of what was free and within one's one love of life itself. To enrich her own mind as well and learn what she never did before, as her dancing swooned closer to this unknown doe, a smile like any swan would be.
