The question shouldn't be how, but why?
Why were they here?
An albino serval stood on the shore of the black sand beach with a dull expression and a thousand-yard stare, but it would not be the first thing the Descendants of the Departed would notice. Instead, the lack of transportation or a method of arrival would be what they would see. Their arrival was a mystery. Such a small, fragile creature should not be able to get through treacherous seas without anyone or anything accompanying them... Yet here they were. The strange serval stood tall and unscathed for all to see. They were dry as can be. How strange.
The feline's gaze lacked any real emotion behind it as they surveyed the territory. Another question would come to mind. Where? Where were they to go? They stood motionless, only moving their head to acknowledge the many features of the volcanic territory as they went methodically from left to right. Suddenly, they paused. The creature squinted. Moments later, they continued to peer sideways. Their mathematical turn ended at the edge of the coast moments later.
Their head whipped around towards the volcano-laden horizon. Pink paw pads started to graze the ground and built up to a brisk walk in no time. What were they looking for? When would they acknowledge their surroundings? They just trudged forward. It was unclear whether they had a goal in mind or not, but the albino just kept their head straight, paws forward, and moved on.
The question that one may ask next would be 'who?' Who were they? Well, that was one the albino serval could not even answer themselves. In a sense, they were nothing, yet everything all at once. It was quite the predicament. Until someone assigned them a purpose, they were utterly useless. The serval was a blank canvas and a tool to be used by all. In time, maybe they could become a weapon driven by simple commands or a friend under the guise of a transactional relationship. The possibilities are endless for them... yet they have no identity. They are simply no one. When would they know the answer to who they were? Will they ever be someone? The answer was unknown.
For now, 'who?' remains unanswered. The other questions of 'How? Why? Where? What?' all needed to be answered beforehand and then maybe an answer would appear. In the meantime, the serval could only move forward in their travels, leaving the black sand beach behind them as they walked on.
