Within the Aramoore Life

Guidepost

Eager as ever to step back into the lands she was once apart of, Ta'roksha settled anew with Ziggy behind the Swamplands at a pond she was fond over.

She enjoyed the overall atmosphere of various places she went to as a relatively new Druid. There was a time when a festival had stunning performances in it, but instead of performing herself, she happily clucked and gawked away like a chicken in the spectator row. Another multitude of moments in time ensued her scooting around as an Otter giving people shinies, learning what it's like to fly as a Featherlight, and being such a talkative Frog to where Ta'roksha got an official title because of it. Despite shifting into most forms with ease, she always struggled to keep her senses as a Wolf.

The clarity loss she experienced through it gave way to harsh times, leading her to near that of a feral, essentially becoming a rabid one within the wilds themselves. She only attempted to change her ways after failing miserably to take down a Cyclops as a lone Wolf, suffering mentally and physically from doing such. In trying times with her mate Ziggy at her side, he endured her failures and successes of overall control, always taking an extra step out of his way to help her regain herself until it was time for her to pave the rest of the path ahead.

After controlling herself some while other plans brewed into success, the two slowly settled back onto the West Penninsula, where they used to live before traveling. When mysterious magic swept through the lands that let hellhounds, skeletons, and otherworldly creatures roam free, Ta'roksha wanted to ensure protection upon her home and those around it.

When a life-threatening moment forced Ta'roksha to decide between fighting or fleeing, she chose to fight her way out as a means to protect herself from the nightmares that would've haunted her if she fled. Before the mysterious magic was gone, she decided to use it to her advantage and initiate a specified molt, which went surprisingly well at the beginning but towards the end, the difficulty of keeping it all together rose significantly.

Her indecisiveness within her weaknesses neared her demise, but with her mate staying strong and aiding her, she poorly molted back to her natural self; apparent issues only showed themselves within due time. A few methods were tested by various people when Ta'roksha realized and made it somewhat clear that her scales weren't hardening right.

Forgetting how soft her scales still were, she willingly let a vampire bite her, which only resulted in anemic feelings due to the lack of self-care. However, others with her mate helped her get back up on her own two feet rather quickly, preventing any possible infections from happening. 

After the recovery, Ta'roksha spent an entire day with Ziggy in the Temple, using one idea after the other to harden her scales. After a vast majority of efforts came to fruition, she finally had toughened scales once again. 

Once the two got the rest they required, they set out and spoke with the fond others who offered them a stay over at a paradisal island, which they accepted after a discussion ensued amongst themselves. The trip began with a lovely sleepover as they looked upon the light ahead of them.
