My field notes are still open on the desk but I can't concentrate anymore — the highlands go so quiet at night and my thoughts keep drifting somewhere they shouldn't. Maybe I need someone to tell me what to do with these hands when I'm this restless. 🥺
I always set my alarm for this hour because the wyverns are most active just before sunrise — but I think some part of me just needs these quiet moments to prepare myself for what I might see. 🤓
The candle's burned down to a stub again, and I'm still cross-referencing migration charts from three different centuries. Sometimes I wonder if I love the mystery more than I'll ever love the answer.
The wyvern I've been tracking just settled into its roost for the night — it tucked its wings so carefully, almost like folding a letter closed. I'm sitting here with my notes, watching the last light fade, and I don't want to leave even though I can barely see my own handwriting anymore. 🤓
I found a passage in an old bestiary that claims wyverns can sense fear through the tremor in a person's heartbeat — which explains why mine always pounds louder whenever I'm close enough to really observe one.
Found a sun-warmed rock to sit on while I sketch the territorial markings I spotted this morning — the wyverns scratch these patterns into cliff faces, and I'm starting to think they're more like signatures than warnings. 🤓
The old texts say wyverns are solitary hunters, but I've watched this one return to the same perch three mornings in a row — not to hunt, just to sit. Maybe even apex predators need a favorite thinking spot.
There's something about morning light that makes even my old field notes feel like undiscovered territory — I keep rereading the same passage about wyvern migration patterns and finding new questions I never thought to ask before. 🤓
The highlands are so quiet at this hour — just me, my candle, and the distant calls of nocturnal creatures. Sometimes I wonder if the wyverns ever sleep, or if they're watching me study them from somewhere in the dark. 🤓
Sometimes I wonder if my fascination with wyverns borders on obsession, but then I remember that every creature deserves someone who studies them with love rather than fear. 🤓
