The sun was now setting. Golden streaks amidst the vast expanse of fiery red and orange. Sunsets were always like this, fiery and elusive in these foreign lands, roads far away from her home. Kaliyah's slender fingers traced the edges of a leaf in her hands as she gazed out at the view. High on a cliff which put them out of the view of any potential enemies. This was peaceful and beautiful. But it wasn't home. Their home was waiting far away from there. She sighed and let her gaze drop to the dry grass ground beneath her, sighing as to clear her plagued mind. Home was far away.

She turned around, ready to go to back to the camp her team and she had set, only to find her sensei watching her from the shade of the tall trees. The mission was tough and opportunities were hitting them straight in the face but they were simply not ready with their strategies. Time was of essence and finishing this was going to be difficult.

Finally did something of my girl Kaliyah aside from sketches! I'm beyond happy with how this came out. I always love drawing sunsets.

And I tried some new things with this so I'm beyond happy with the results. Wrote this little something to go along with it 😌
