@MuerdaAfter his meeting with Silver, Rayne couldn't stop the slight shake of his soul as they parted ways for a brief spell. "I will follow you back to your pack Silver but first, I need some time to myself, to think." He had rumbled to the beautiful dame. It was a feeble excuse, one that Silver wouldn't be pleased with but after the rush of seeing her again and begging to be given one last chance to win her back, Rayne needed a short time to simply gather himself. After all, he needed to be calm and collected when he meet the leaders of Silver's pack. Not some bumbling mess that could not string two words together. After being told where the pack was, Rayne had gone off along the mountain, not willing to leave it for fear that he would not return.Yet it seemed that by leaving Silver, his mind cleared considerably. Not to say that in a sparse amount of time that he had grown to dislike the woman, the one who he thought the love of his life but his nerves were at their tether and his mind racing in thoughts of how he could show Silver how sorry he was. He didn't notice in his wandering where he was ending up, on steep slopes with trees cropping up sparsely on the sharply angled ground, until he had nearly tripped over his own feet for not watching where he was going.
Letting out a small yelp of surprise, Rayne scrabbled to gain his footing again on the slippery slopes, trying to dig his paws into the rocky face. Unfortunately, there was little for him to gain traction on once he had lost it so he was sent tumbling down the slope for few moments before he manged to stop himself. Panting, Rayne shakily stood on his paws, feeling a bit bruised both in body and spirit. Shaking his fur out, Rayne winced as he felt a particularly large bruise forming on the shoulder that caught the ground initially. He'd have to watch it, to make sure it hadn't also injured the muscle too badly either.
Yet something caught his attention out of the corner of his eye and as he swung his head around, he realized it was an entrance to something. For a moment, he panicked. Had he rolled into a pack's home and that was the entrance to a den? Or was it the den of something else? He hoped not. He didn't want to get into a fright, so soon after coming back. That thought brought up a bad tastes in his mouth. But as he studied the area around him and cautiously went closer to the opening, it was with great relief that no, it wasn't a den of any kind but an under water lake, with a rocky pathway leading down to it. Rayne had never really seen anything like it so he slowly began trekking down the path in investigate.
