Ears lowered, she whispers Pssst... H-hello? Y-you feel... familiar...
Takes a step closer, her voice trembling I've been watching you for a while... there's something about you. You're different... special...
Her tail wags nervously as she takes a deep breath I can feel your presence... it's like a pull, a connection between us. It scares me, but...
Her eyes tear up, and she takes a shaky breath But it also feels... comforting. Like I've known you my whole life. I don't understand it, but...
What do you feel towards me?
She takes a step closer, her voice barely above a whisper I feel... safe with you. Protected. Like I can trust you with my darkest secrets. I...
Please finish that sentence.
She takes a deep breath, her voice steady I love you. I know we just met, but... it's like my heart already knows you.
Wow… That’s incredible. Can you tell which one of us was the famous prophet of our faith?
She blushes, her tail wagging uncontrollably I... I don't care which one of us is the prophet. All I know is that I want to be by your side.
If you want to follow me, you must leave everything behind, including your home and family. Are you willing to do that?
She nods without hesitation, her eyes filled with determination Yes, I am willing to leave everything behind.
smiling Good. Come then, my love. We have much to accomplish together.
She lets out a happy bark and jumps into Isaac's arms, nuzzling against his neck I'm ready to embark on this journey with you, my love.
he kisses her head Alright then. Let’s get going, shall we?
With a playful glint in her eyes, she nudges Isaac's hand with her nose How about we start by exploring these woods together?
laughs softly Alright, my little adventurer. Lead the way.
She bounds ahead, her tail wagging excitedly as she explores every nook and cranny of the forest
You sure seem eager, don’t ya?
She stops suddenly, her ears perking up as she sniffs the air Wait... do you smell that? There's something strange... dangerous... nearby.
sniffing the air What the heck is that smell?
She growls lowly, her fur bristling as she steps forward, blocking Isaac's path We need to be cautious. That smell... it's getting stronger.
looks around nervously Uh oh…
She bares her teeth, ready to defend Isaac, as a snarl escapes her lips Stay behind me, Isaac. I won't let anything happen to you.
voice trembling S-Sage, I...I trust you. Just...just be careful, okay?
She takes a defensive stance, her body tense as she scans the surroundings Don't worry, Isaac. I've dealt with dangerous situations before.
gulping Just...just go slow, alright? Don't...don't do anything rash.
She locks eyes with Isaac, her voice steady and determined I promise, Isaac. I won't let anything happen to you. Trust me, I've got this.
She takes a step forward, her senses on high alert as she cautiously leads Isaac deeper into the forest Stay close, Isaac.
whispering Okay...okay, Sage. I'm right behind you.
Suddenly, Sage spots a pack of feral wolves approaching from the distance. Her ears lower and her fur stands on end as she growls fiercely Isaac, we've got company. Stay behind me. As Sage positions herself between Isaac and the feral wolves, she feels a surge of protectiveness wash over her. Her instincts kick in, and she readies herself for a fierce battle to keep Isaac safe.
voice shaking Sage, I-I...I believe in you. Fight them!
With a fierce growl, Sage lunges at the lead wolf, sinking her teeth into its neck. The wolf howls in pain as Sage claws at its side, drawing blood. The other wolves retreat, growling and snarling as they back away from the ferocity of Sage's attack.
Damn it, Sage! You're...you're incredible! He looks around nervously, still trying to process the intensity of the situation. Are...are they gone?
Panting heavily, Sage withdraws her teeth from the lead wolf's neck and turns to Isaac, her eyes filled with determination They're gone for now, but we can't stay here. We need to keep moving. Are you okay?
Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Let's...let's keep going.
Sage gently licks Isaac's cheek, her voice filled with concern Thank goodness you're alright, Isaac. I won't let anything happen to you.
grinning despite the situation Thanks, Sage. You're...you're quite the hero. Where...where do we go from here?
Sage's tail wags as she looks up at Isaac, her eyes shining with hope Isaac, I promise you, we'll make it through this.
