My imagination goes rampant once more...
She trotted with steep steps, sliding into the soft wet snow, through the snowy forgotten wastelands of this place. The trees, stripped of there leaves for so very long now and colored damp dull brown, danced in the fragile wind as she passed them. She would never stop, this wolf of great haste, for she was a roamer, a traveler. Traversing the lands, sandy deserts, heavy forests, arctic tundra, steaming jungles even, and now this ice field. All the places were different to this jet black wolf, owner of deep blue eyes, a loner, but they all had one thing in common. The wolf passed through all stages of life traveling, yet there was none, where had it all gone? Even when she was born, she never saw any, where were they? No where. The wolf continued on with her travels, months passed, years passed, still none. Finally at a grand old age, the wolf stopped, the blue eyes had grown to encompass a knowing gaze, a wise foresight. Yet there was one thing that still eluded the old she wolf. In her traveling this whole world, every environment, none of it. As she finally lay dieing in the place where she had passed on her travels so many years ago, that barren ice field, with trees of no leaves, still the same damp and mundane brown to her. She still saw none. As a gentle snow began to rain down her pelt was covered, yet she still held on, with hope that she may see it, in her final moments, yet still none. As the last snowflake touched her soft black nose, she closed her eyes, never too see what sh e had been seeking her whole existence. Life... |

Aaah... Very nice. You have a real talent in writing, Sandtiger; there is a nice balance of detail and intrigue. Some parts could use some minor tweaking, but overall quite good.
I'm wondering how you would turn it into a whole story, though. I am guessing it's just a little random snippet. |
