Aurora's latest quest has sent her deep into the mountains of Albion. There have been reports of furs going missing in the woods out here. Aurora has taken it upon herself to claim the guild quest to investigate. Whether it's slavers or some monster, she can't just ignore the harm it's causing.

After a long day of travels and hiking up into the highlands, Rora is taking a moment to scope her surroundings. As a fennec, she is semi-nocturnal, and is capable of being out in the dark for much later into the night than most. Though the lake is quiet and peaceful on the surface, she keeps her sword drawn, well-aware that reports of danger don't just come out of nowhere.

The midnight chill was beginning to creep its way through her short fennec-fur. It was just about time to set up a campfire and call it a night until the temperature warmed up from the morning sun. Before she had a chance to pick a good campsite, the evening sky suddenly lit up with the most beautiful lights. She'd only ever seen the phenomenon that became her namesake in pictures and on TV back home in Otherworld. She didn't even know if they were possible on this side of the mirror. Even in a world full of fantasy and magic, few sights are quite as magnificent as Aurora -- erm, the aurora light.

Hopefully she doesn't catch a cold standing out here watching them for too long

Thank you to   Michelle_Lipton for this gorgeous nighttime alt. If you'd like to see one in cooler evening lighting, I have it posted on my profile ^^

I also love the "head empty" stare in the headshot. Very much the sort of thing she'd do. Just stop and stare into the distance without thinking before having a sudden burst of impulsive thoughts/actions
