She had never been in water before. In fact, her pack had hardly even had a body of water that she could even swim in if she wanted to. But now she found herself kicking desperately against the water to keep her head above the surface. She was clumsy and awkward about it, but somehow she managed to stay alive long enough to see pale land in the distance. She coughed and did her best to swim towards it, but she had been swimming for what felt like days and after another several minutes she began to realize how dizzy and exhausted she was. Her paws were in autopilot as she slowly began to allow her head to dip under the water, and after only a few minutes she was slipping out of consciousness.

Darkness surrounded her once more, but her head still continued to spin as her body was thrown along with the waves towards the shores of Vor'asa. It was only when she was thrown against a massive metal object that she was shocked back into the real world. She gasped for air as her body hit the ship once more, her paws kicking out to the side frantically before she realized she was no longer standing. It was difficult to right herself, but she managed to eventually, and immediately she was hit by the freezing wind the blew mercilessly off the snowy landscape around her. What is this place? Her mind was spinning along with the rest of the world as her mint green eyes scanned her surroundings, but because of how close she stood to the ship, she could barely see anything other than snow and water.

So, instead of sticking around in the open any longer than she needed to, she ducked her head and squeezed herself into the massive human structure that she was certain had to be the ship she had been on hours before. It was not, of course, but who was she to know the difference? Her body trembled and shook with the cold as she sought the humans, or anyone to help her within the old and rusted structure. She found none, but by the time she finished searching the vessel she was shaking so violently she was certain she would die if she stepped out into the cold wind once more. So instead she found herself a small corner of a room to curl up in and began to groom herself, doing her best to lick the moisture and ice from her coat in an attempt to avoid freezing to death.

Part of her wanted to howl, to call out to her pack or any pack to beg for their help, but she knew that this was not home. She did not know where it was, but her family and her former mate were long gone and likely had forgotten about her already. She was on her own now, and since the ship had sunk she likely would not even see help from the humans. She had always believed she would live a long and fruitful life in her father's pack, serving her mate and birthing many litters for the pack's future. But instead she found herself in a metal beast and all alone, shivering and whimpering as she curled up and did her best to conserve whatever energy she had left in order to wait out the cold in this unforgiving and brutally frozen wasteland.

Once more, Vor’asa had filled with scores of young, ambitious pups seeking to carve their path in Kairos’ expansive and impressive history. Their Agoge would not be simple by any means, especially with the harsh winter that had befallen Anikira. But it would make them commendable warriors when they at last presented their eggs to their mentors and saw what fate would eventually befall them. Sabaoth had settled into Vor’asa to train those whom he stumbled upon that wished it. Occasionally he would return to Ale’ina to patrol and refresh the border markers, for it was his home and his primary territory. But to Vor’asa he continuously returned.

His large paws lead him up and over the snow-crusted dunes, the flakes settling upon his shoulders and spine, a constant coat of winter. His pale blue eyes roamed across the horizon, squinting against the frigid wind that battered at his gargantuan form, screaming shrilly. It was difficult enough for one of his size and stature to navigate the snow, and though his coat was thick enough to withstand the chill, it still bit at his ears and muzzle, and the areas where the fur was thinner. He could not imagine how the smaller wolves with pelts less inclined to the subzero temperatures were fairing. Kairos had been tropical and warm in all their territories, after all; none of them had anticipated this.

His steps lead him towards the silhouette of the ship shrouded in mist and covered in ice at its highest points, groaning against the wind that constantly buffeted it. He moved towards it, intending to seek shelter, and perhaps slightly melancholy for it was where he had encountered Liadan, his first daughter, not long ago. He huffed out a snort as he ducked into the interior – or what remained of it. The ship had always been a strange figure, a skeletal corpse of some great human-made contraption. It was intriguing, and a fair source of shelter when one was in need.

He’d been standing within the enclosed area for only a moment when he heard it, a soft whimpering that barely carried over the sound of the wind and the ship’s groaning. He frowned, picking his way through the remainder of the rooms until he found the source of the noise. She was a tiny thing, huddled down and shivering hard, her coat half wet with crystals of ice already beginning to form. Had she been of Kairos, he would have offered her his warmth, much as he loathed to touch those who were not his family. Indeed, Roka and his children had been the few to receive tender motions from him; whenever anyone else made contact with Sabaoth, it was usually with fang and claws.

”You’re going to freeze to death at this rate,” he said gruffly, pale gaze roaming across her brown and white frame. He could at least attempt to block some of the wind curling into the room from the single entrance; positioning his large frame between her and the door, he sat onto his haunches and blinked. ”How is it you found yourself washed up on Kairos territory, then?”

It felt like hours that she laid there curled into a tiny ball, but just as she was beginning to give in and let herself accept her fate, the wind stopped. Her ears twitched, and before she even lifted her head a deep voice danced dangerously through the dark towards her. At first, she flinched. However, as her green eyes opened and her head lifted slightly, she spotted the massive figure of a male standing over her. He was not exactly close, but he was dry and very large, so clearly he had not come from the ship that she had. Did he live here? Then her ears actually managed to register the words he spoke. Yes, she was certain that he was right, she would freeze very soon at this rate. But then he spoke of a pack and asked her how she had come onto their land.

She swallowed, suddenly nervous and uncomfortable with his full attention on her. She let her eyes drop habitually to his paws, making sure not to upset him by looking blatantly into his face. "I do not know. I was on a human ship that sank. I swam as much as I could, but then I passed out. I woke up when the waves threw me against this place." She said, her voice trembling as she shivered and curled herself into an even tighter ball. She swallowed once more, whimpering as she closed her eyes and sneezed. The cold was sinking even deeper into her form, and she was almost convinced that she would never be warm again. "P-please help me..." She whined softly, knowing how pathetic she sounded.

But at this point, did it really matter? Beg him for his help or die, even her pride could not argue with her decision. That, and her pride did not really stretch that far anyways. She did not know what Kairos was, but from the way he spoke could only mean it was a pack and that this was their land. She had trespassed, but at least it was not on purpose, right? She lowered her head to tuck her nose back under her tail after she sneezed yet again, her body trembling violently and her ears pinned backwards against her head as she whimpered so much it was clear that she had lost the ability not to. How much longer would she last? The water on her fur still weighed her down, especially now that most of it had begun to crust over in icicles that clung to her and pulled painfully at her frozen skin. He was her last hope, and part of her wondered if he would simply just turn around and let her die.

He could see how uncomfortable she seemed by his presence, her wide green eyes dropping from his face, which she’d studied only briefly, to his paws. A wise move, a submissive one, and one that made Sabaoth tilt his head a fraction as he gazed down at her. She began speaking them, her teeth chattering around her words as she explained how several unfortunate twists of fate had lead her to be here on Vor’asa. It was not the first time that he’d heard of wolves being transported by human vessels that sank, the waves carrying them to the shores of Anikira; what was it about their island, he wondered, that seemed to warrant such misfortunes in their waters?

He was drawn out of his musing by her voice, weakly imploring for his help, so pathetic yet genuine that Sabaoth sighed. For a long moment he did not move, simply watching her, until a tiny little sneeze escaped her and her shivering seemed to intensify. If he did not warm her, she would die – he could see it, the way her sopping wet pelt refused to dry, the way crystals of ice crusted in her ruff. She was bitterly, lethally cold, and as much as he wished he had not been the one to find her, that he did not have to do what he was about to, he did.

Sabaoth took a single step forward, and then another, before lowering himself beside her. He wedged his massive body behind hers, curling around her and effortlessly dwarfing her, encloaking her with his frame. She was a tiny thing, so perhaps it would not take long for her to grow warmer with his gargantuan form encircling her. ”Had I been another, I might have left you to die,” he told her, his words stark and cold. ”Kairos is not known for housing the friendliest company. Then again, the males here are quite fond of pretty things. Maybe they would have warmed you and kept you as a prize.”

He snorted at the thought; in his youth, he had been the same, taking spoils of war as he’d once called them, though to think of it now brought him shame. That had been before Roka and his children had changed him, had softened his grizzled heart a fraction. But he would not think on that now; not with a stranger relying on him and him alone to keep her alive. ”What is your name? And where is it that you intend to go, should you live and recover from this? Anikira is a large place, with many packs – some kinder than our empire, and some…well, not so much.”

At first she wondered if he was going to let her freeze to death. It seemed like it for a few moments, but then he moved towards her and in a matter of moments she felt his form engulf her smaller one. Instantly she could feel the heat of his body begin to warm her, slowly melting the crystals of ice that had formed on her coat. Her ears flattened to her head and she shrank into him as he spoke, easily falling into the submissive feminine role that she had always known. She had to admit that what he spoke of his pack did not intimidate her or frighten her, and it actually sounded quite wonderful to her ears. She took his words as a compliment, but of course she could not allow it to go to her head. That simply was not in her personality at all.

When he asked her what her plans were, she whined softly and shook her head. "My name is Asia. I did not even know this place was called Anikira. I have nowhere to go." She said softly, carefully lifting her head up from where it had been buried against his shoulder to look up at his chest and chin. She still did not dare look him in the eyes, but she was curious to see exactly what he looked like. She could see out of the side of her eye that he was ruggedly handsome, with obvious scars and marks of a warrior strewn across his face. He had seen many battles and clearly had won his fair share. This was the kind of male she had always wanted to be near, the kind of male that she had always been drawn to.

But he did not seem particularly interested in her in that moment. She allowed her eyes to drop back to his paws for a moment before she buried her face once more, relaxing and sighing softly as her fur began to dry and her shivering gradually came to a stop. Thankfully before long she was completely dry and warmed simply from his form alone, and she carefully ran her tongue over her form to ensure no more moisture remained in case he decided he was done with her and got up from where they had been laying. But she did not dare move until he did or he told her to, for she did not want to risk upsetting him and making him send her away or worse, back to the water.
