Those with an otherworldly heritage do not go undetected. Much like the gentle pull of the tide, Dovedeparture found herself marching towards the bridge. Her path was set long before the bell could toll and much longer than it took for the scent of Tanglewood to reach her on the wind. She moved with purpose, but it was almost as if she were on some sort of autopilot; her mind wandered to distant places, trying to explain her feelings, while her body trudged onward.
Finally, she broke out into the open, silent. Observant. She took note of Tanteri and Idyllfields' banter as well as the way Vandal had perched herself like a gargoyle, but their words were not allowed her reach her ears. The voices melted into unintelligible noise, rising and falling, but she couldn't make them out. She was too focused on the new figure.
The hell hound. A quizzical look painted her features as she took him in. In all her days, she had never seen something like him. Yes, she had seen a hell hound before (who hadn't in her line of work?), but there was something else. Something... divine.
She could see his wings. Angelic wings. More than that, there was a familiarity in his soul that made her heart skip two or three beats. Her lips moved to form a name, but her speech failed her. A scowl darkened her features. Why couldn't she remember? She knew him... She had known him from the before...
"Hello," she finally breathed, after grasping at her remaining composure. The lynx now resembled her normal self: poised, bright, smiling. "My name is Dovedeparture. But Dove works all the same." She opened her mouth to ask to speak with Wormwood privately, but she quickly refrained. He was hiding in the body of a hell hound, so perhaps he was doing reconnaissance work of some sort.
So, she gave a knowing smile. "I look forward to getting to know you, Wormwood. Should you need anything, I am always available." Using her abilities, she would try to telepathically add, 'There is much to discuss, starting with the form you're taking! What an interesting twist. I admire that, actually... It's been so long since I've spoken with someone like us.' She paused, her smiling brightening just a hair. 'I'm sorry I can't remember much, but it's - it's so nice to see you again!'
