tags; liva
ice lined the sides of the stream. they stayed away from the shards, making sure to only put their weight on the bank. leaning down, they gulped a beakful of water before resurfacing and looking around. it seemed that there were only a few bugs flying about. hm. they would've thought something else would've come to the stream already, in this heat. that was somewhat odd.
after a few more drinks, akemi had their fill, and stood. where to now? the obvious choice would be to stay at the stream - it was a source of clean water, a rare one, and there were abundant plants and shrubs growing along its sides. they could build up their strength and find out which plants were safe before finding their territory. but such an ideal place could only attract predators and other vivians. if a larger group came in, they could lose any fight, and that would mean having to make another journey while injured.
then, closer to the blooming tree? the stream was too wide to jump, and unless they found some way to cross it, that meant a detour. where else could akemi go? an option was to keep along the same distance, travelling around the blooming tree until they found a more hidden stream or a cave. or they could go back to the wastelands; that might mean leaving liva behind, and they'd also much prefer to be stronger before they made that journey.
