( ✧ ) when the wind blows low over the prairie, when evening descends and fog creeps across the land, obscuring signs of life, pelts prickle and paws tread carefully along familiar paths. withered grasses sway in the waning light, skeletal branches reaching their twisted limbs towards the overcast sky. the mournful cry of a distant raven echoes through the desolation, its haunting melody sends shivers up the spine of any who venture out upon the veiled land. the moorland becomes a spectral realm, the boundary between the living and the dead blurred until one cannot know for certain which domain they wander.
in the dismal moonlight, the pale pelt of a feline glows slightly amongst the fog. the goddess pads softly along a well-worn trail, paws slipping into the grooves of pawsteps left before her. in her jaws, a scrawny rabbit swings, fur patched and ribs clear under the thin pelt. mothmoon silently makes her way home, trying to stop the heavy anxiety that has settled in her stomach just as the mist has settled the moor. eyes of dark amber flick from side to side, narrowed in an attempt to see further than a few fox lengths before her as she winds through the moor, steps quick and light. as the warrior of wind rounds a corner, a sliver of moonlight breaks from the sky, beaming down upon the rustling grasses. mothmoon halts, eyes widening as she throws her head around to find her patrol. "look," she whispers, voice pitched.
amidst the swirling mist that cloaks the eerie landscape, there emerges a chilling sight. a shadow-dark rabbit with fur as inky as the abyss. its pelt absorbs what little light remains from the clouded sky, rendering it nearly invisible save for its ominous silhouette. two blood-red eyes, like burning coals, pierce through the haze, emanating an unsettling glow. the rabbit moves with an uncanny grace, its movements both etherial and disconcerting as it hops silently through the fog. each hop leaves an eery, fleeting imprint in the damp earth, like ghostly footprints in the night. its presence defies the natural order, a spectral figure that sends a shiver down the spine of anyone who catches a glimpse, a creature that seems to have emerged from the darkest corners of imagination to haunt this misty moorland.
the patrol stands stock still in the grass as the creature moves slowly towards them. memories of an elders' tale surface unwillingly in the thoughts of the young warrior, and she whispers softly to her clanmates; "the tale of the black rabbit of death is a myth, right?" brows furrow, legs locked as she stares at the crimson eyes that gleam in the dim moonlight. "i can't be the only one seeing this."
// plot twist it's a normal rabbit whose eyes are reflective in the moonlight but the patrol doesn't know that yet. prompt fill!
