While more than ever feeling alone, packless, as one of the Thihirtha Numea, Melissa wanders the streets of Southwestern Sacramento. Like the Herd, she ordered a strawberry milkshake at a nearby Subway. The sweet taste made her somewhat comfortable, because...
... there is so much to unsettle the Cahalith. She is trying to figure out the local borders and territories. Relatively far removed from downtown Sacramento, she walks on unclaimed land. Yet the border of the territory of The Sworn is dangerously close. If only she knew.
Of course, she is in Hishu form - she hopes to meet some other Uratha - and talking is best done wearing their human skin. Dressed in simple clothing, her eyes gaze through the streets. Several minutes past 5pm, the streets are busy with everyone going home from work. She expects to have at least a small chance. Passersby would without doubt declare her as having a cold, but by Mother Luna, she only tries to recognize the scent of her own kind.
