I feel like it will be one of the smaller waterfalls that she falls from, and possibly washing up against the banks of one of the small pools? Feel free to PP lach saving her though if that's how you see it playing out, since she blacked out! c: @Lachesis
The passing of winter had already signaled the beginning of spring as new life began budding through the forest. Everything was beautifully green, spare a few splashes of brown. Sunny eyes soaked up each and every image the Earth had to offer, as pale paws subconsciously led her in Lach's direction. With the sun high in the sky, and all traces of snow gone from the Earth, it was almost easy to forget the last few months. Almost.
Enjoying the sun, Capella took her time following Lachesis' trail. Knowing the spider-legged male couldn't be too far ahead of her, but she still didn't want him to spend the day alone. It was far too nice, and she had some things to share with him. Still unsure, she had spent the better part of her days since his birthday in a whirlwind of questions. There was so much she still didn't understand, and without a mentor, maybe she never would. Of course the girl knew she loved him, but the type of love remained a grey area. It was different somehow, not the same as she'd felt for Karpos or Shade.
Just the thought of his name had visions haunting her once more, dancing through her mind with the same ill intentions they always had. It started with an itch in her paws, screaming for her to run. Why did this keep happening to her? It was the same each time. Her lungs refused to fill; Drowning, begging for just a little more air. Broken sobs flung from her throat, as she searched for an answer. The outside world was lost to the fae as she ran, barely dodging the obstacles in her path. Luckily she was still traveling towards her companion, as she could just make out his form over the horizon. Dutiful as ever, it seemed he was picking plants for his stores.
Somewhere the sound of roaring water was muffled by her panic, and then the Earth below her vanished in a splash. It was already too late when she realized that they were above the falls, far too late to do anything but accept what was happening. Kicking against the rapids, she tried to call out for him, only to swallow water. Now she truly was drowning. Her joints were burning from the effort, but try as she might, there was no fighting the current. Struggling to keep herself above the water, she had a strange moment of deja vu. Hadn't she been here before? Just before her entry into Relic-lore? It seemed strange, how she could go out the same way she came in. Fitting even. Eerily enough, a sudden calm consumed her.
Flung over the edge, her paws grasped at air. This was it. Closing her eyes, she awaited the rocks to catch her, hoping it would be quick. Poor Lach. Who would care for him now? How would he take it? She'd never even gotten to tell him how she felt. Then everything went black.
