Journey into the Dark [Private]

Valerys looked around at the countryside as the sun was beginning to fall below the horizon line, casting the landscape in a net of dim light and growing shadows. The desert heat was finally beginning to subside, although she was rather accustomed to it by now. Her short, auburn hair blew slightly in the wind – part of her truest appearance that she often did not wear but, as usual, out here in the desert she didn’t fear so much that someone might know her face. She wore her regular clothing as well, her maroon tank top and matching skirt leaving much of her skin bare to be touched by the sun. The messenger pack was strapped around her shoulders and held her headband as well as a map of the known world, a tracking device, two tracers, and a kunai. Basic equipment, along with the polearm that was strapped to her back. She’d foregone the usual necessities not expecting too much trouble on this run, and also not wanting to look suspicious on her way into Sukuinushi.
At one time she had been meeting at a headquarters there to plan the village’s demise, but lately things had gotten quiet. Now she found herself wanting to regroup and check up on the situation. She sent Akumu on a mission a while back to find a master and to increase his skills, leaving her alone on this trip. It was odd how much she’d become used to his presence after such a short time – but after riding upon his back she found that the thought often did not leave her mind. Having walked most of the day until this point, she stopped near an outcropping of boulders and rested up against them, giving herself a moment to relax before continuing. Really it wasn’t that much further and as long as she didn’t run into issues she thought she could get there by sunrise.
Valerys let out a sigh and looked up at the moon, a bit dim and sharing the sky with the sun for a short moment before nightfall. “Yin and yang huh?” she said beneath her breath. “Wonder what that could mean?”
