Ashanti couldn't help but let out a soft smile as she was allowed to return to the home she once had, so she could learn once more who she really was. He rubbed his scent on her before making a quick departure and it pained her heart. What had she done? Ashanti tried to piece the puzzle together but she was having a hard time in doing so. Had it been something she said? Something she had done? It was clear that he needed to be alone and so the large girl pushed forward to find her own way into the Thicket and around the pack territory. Who else still remained in Secret Woodlands that she once knew? Who else knew her and what was her relationship with them? So many questions flooded her mind like a cascading waterfall.
"Dear Gods, why have you brought me here? The fault is not in that of our stars but in ourselves, that we are the underlings." She pieced together some words from that of her 'father' about her gods and her religious beliefs. Her heart shattered, filled with a soft pain that she didn't understand completely but she was almost sure it had to do with Miccah. Had she hurt him, even if just emotionally? You know nothing Ashanti "Celestina". She reminded herself that she knew nothing of the foreign place she once called home. It was time for her to find a new way in the world, it was time to repair what she had seemingly done in Secret Woodlands with her leave.
