Come down, come down sweet reverence

Jynn headed south toward where she'd heard the entrance to the Glowshroom Cavern was. Supposedly it was full of glowing mushrooms so she just had to check that out and she hoped it was worth the journey. Soon, Jynn spied the entrance and she slipped down into the mouth of a deep, dark cave. Up ahead she could see a faint blue glow and then when she turned the corner she gasped in awe. There was a vast dark cavern full of jagged stalagmites and stalagtites as well as cool, glowing blue mushrooms. There were so many they lit up the cavern enough that she could see a stream flowing through the middle. Mushrooms grew on the floor, the walls and even the ceiling. "Whoa, it is so neat in here!"

It had been a while since Hanako had travelled for the sake of it, but it was a nice change of pace for sure. Eager to follow in her newly acquired friend's pawsteps, the pair travelled south and soon found themselves at the mouth of a cavern. She sniffed tentatively, unsure of what laid within. Well...mushrooms from what she'd told but what else? Squinting into the dark dots of light soon caught her attention and as she pressed onwards they grew brighter and brighter till the reflections shone in her eyes.

Oh wow, it was so pretty! She was almost a little sad she hadn't come across this place before, but now she was here it was as good as a time as any to have a good snoop around and take in the views.

"Mmm. Do you always travel like this?" Hanako asked, daintily dipping a paw into one of the shallow puddles that lined the floor. "Just seeing whatever is out there?"

Come down, come down sweet reverence

Jynn padded over to the stream that ran through the center of the cavern. She bent her head and sniffed at the water to make sure it really was water before reaching out a paw and lightly tapping the surface. She grinned as she watched the blue glow of the mushrooms reflect and sway in the water which acted like a mirror to reflect the light upon the walls of the cavern. She looked back to the calico girl and nodded. "Yes, it's how I want to live the rest of my life. Just exploring lands and seeing what the world has to offer. Some day I'd like to start a band of like minded wolves. It's just more fun to travel with company, I think."

"Oooh that sounds like it could be a lotta fun." She admitted, already able to picture it easily in her head. After all, Hanako had met a whole lot of wolves during her travels, from all walks of life. None of her meetings had been bad, they all ended on a pleasant note. "Might be a nice change too...I find wolves often just find a place and stick to it. Like trees with deep roots."

And that was fine, there was stability in settling in but sometimes her wanderlust was hard to ignore, you know?

Glancing up at the ceiling, the roof was shorter than she'd imagined. In an otherworldly place like this she'd expected it to be looming and grandiose, but it was rather small and contained. A little secret for those who ventured close enough to catch sight of the blue-ish glow.

Come down, come down sweet reverence

Jynn wandered along the edge of the stream, pausing to sniff one of the mushrooms but in truth it didn't have the most pleasant smell. Musty and slightly rotten. Which was just as well as she didn't need the temptation to try one having learned in her younger days that eating a mushroom could lead to terrible results. "It is, you get to see all kinds of new things and you can move with the seasons and with the movements of prey. Do you like to explore? Maybe we could get together some time and do a bit more exploring. I'd like to see more of the west here and I've only gotten started." So far the west seemed to have quite a mix of different territories.

"I do." Hanako admitted with a slight frown, the flow of the mushrooms making her eyes seem far brighter than they were. Approaching a stalagmite she gently touched the tip of her paw, wondering if it was as sharp as it looked. It wasn't, the end was round and blunted by the passage of time. "But sometimes it makes me just not want to go home."

Which wasn't good, she'd have to face the music some time or another.

"I'd like that though, I bet there's so much of the world to see. Going it alone probably gets boring fast I imagine. Perhaps leading a band would do Jynn some good, she seemed to know a lot about the lifestyle and Hanako imagined it wouldn't be hard to find wolves cut from a similar cloth.
