In those ethereal moments, she and Sólúlfur had been bound by fate to wordlessly continue their journey. A journey chasing azure wisps and dancing through the Woodlands as they'd made their way diligently more South. Tiberii hardly noticed the scenery change, everything slowly began to meld together as she unwaveringly pressed on. Her large frame was incessant, a thundering of paws that followed on some unseen path, guided by a whispering voice and a feeling in her heart.
She should have felt ridiculous.
But she persisted.
They neared the Throne, and for a moment, the bull would slow. She cast her gaze toward Sólúlfur, flicking her ears before offering her packmate a curt nod. They were to venture into this unknown together, it would seem, bound by the threads of fate and compelled by the strange drumming in the back of both of their minds.
The thundering of the drum grew louder, vibrating within Tiberii's head as she continued to scale the rocky ledges. Her paws, large and cumbersome, would slide on the loose stones, sending granite and shrapnel with dangerous speed down the sheer slope at her side. A gruff exhale rattled through her, determination pressing her muscled frame forward despite the danger that licked at her heels.
And then it appeared.
A strange, twisted object, doused in azure.
Whatever this was ... this was why they were here.
Was it some kind of key?
She couldn't be embarrassed to ask Sólúlfur what an "artifact" was, she'd already used her free question when she'd inquired about the Runes. This would be something that she'd have to figure out in real time.
