[Shadow]

Era I of the Celestine mandate, Era XV Post Fractum
Winter Season in the Beginning of Kalendryas.

As the smells of exotic spices and the sounds of the busy market outside danced in the air, it caused the slumbering katta to begin to stir. Many things passed through his mind as he slowly began to gaze upon the world once more. Even though he knew he had never seen this room before, there was a deep sense of nostalgia about it. Slowly taking in the aroma, listening to his surroundings he knew in moments where he was... This city, Arakmat.

Still the room eluded him, Such luxuries were unknown to him, yet the warm feeling they provided was more then welcoming. His gaze slowly moved to the end of the bed, there curled up asleep was lying a small fox, soft red fur moving up and down with the rhythmic motion of his breath. The katta grinned slightly as he continued to cast his gaze about the room. Fili... The foxes name was familiar in his mind, and even though the details were hazy in his mind, he felt comfort knowing that he was there. Watching him sleeping peacefully was a sign. Where ever this was, it was safe.

The first real motions of movement however gave perspective to the amount of time that he must have been here... His body was achy and slow to respond... Though lithe in form, it reacted as if it were created from the very earth they moved upon. Shaking the bed, and holding in small wimpers of pain, the racket, how ever quiet began to wake Fili, who simply rose from his position at the end of the bed, and moved to place support behind him.

Carefully the Katta began to sit up further, moving to the edge of the bed. " Baal'Maaw Seraaa' " he quietly whispered towards the fox. Taking another deep breath to catch his breath he noticed another sent behind the dancing spiced... Though it was clear he was being attended to, still he knew clearly the first thing he would need to ask for.
