A Prayer to the Gods [Codac]

[DarkBlue]

Codac

Coda felt this conversation was making her uncomfortable. He was never really good at conversations... The great big wolf turned his head to watch as a dripping rock made a little puddle behind him. The thundering rain and flashes of lightning made him feel sorry for any wolf who was caught in the storm. It was almost curious that they were the only ones seeking shelter in this cave. "A storm brought on by the gods..." he repeated.

It made him wonder about when he was in his old pack. They did not speak of the gods often, they did not fear the gods. It never occurred to him that the gods might be responsible for the storms and hails they got, or the faults and deaths. "In my old land we did not speak of the gods. They were such an uncommon subject, i didn't even know there names. We did not fear the gods, like wolves do here." he paused for a moment, and continued. "Many wolves in this land fear the gods. They fear that the gods might make a wrong decision." turning back to look at her and her light grey eyes. "Others fear they already have."

"I only started learning about the gods when i ran into a messenger wolf on my way here. She was a curious thing, full of much knowledge. She taught me everything, as if i was a messenger wolf myself." he often thought of that she-wolf. One of the only wolves who looked past his red eyes. It was a hard thing to do, with his size and all. But perhaps this was just not the place for him.

When Codac turned his head away, it made Cass feel a bit less nervous. Still, she shifted her weight in an attempt to hide the fact that she still looked uneasy. Cass wondered how she would be able to sleep tonight, in this cave with a strange wolf with a terrible storm outside. Perhaps she wouldn't get any rest tonight, she would be doomed to stay up until she felt safe enough to sleep. It made Cassidy so frustrated that she was so small, the big wolf in front of her likely had no trouble sleeping, he had nothing to be afraid of.

While Cassidy continued to keep her gaze on the ground, she finally spoke again, this time a bit quieter. "That's kind of like my old pack.. we didn't talk about the gods much but we still respected them. I mean.. not all of us, but most of us. A lot of my pack was gray-eyed but there were some red-eyed wolves that didn't like the gods or my brother.." Cassidy suddenly glanced up at Codac, she hoped that what she had said didn't offend him.

"I'm sorry, sometimes I talk to much when I'm nervous..." Cassidy once again shifted her weight, then added, "You've been nicer to me than any other red-eyed wolf I've met, but being scared of everything comes with being a small wolf.." She really did appreciate how calm Codac was, but she couldn't simply ignore how big he was. Cass always hoped that one day she could live in a nice pack and never have to worry about strangers anymore, but she didn't see that happening anytime soon.
