On the Long Way Down

Creed had set off away from Celestial for a little bit. It was supposed to be a short trip to scout around a bit more and see what adventures he could find. Ever since he was a little kid he'd always had an adventuring spirit. He was more than happy with his choice of rank as it allowed to to satisfy his lust to explore and get out and do things. It felt good to keep moving, but it was even better knowing he had a home to return to once he was done. It wasn't like Glaciem, his old home in the north, but it was good enough for him and he was happy. Well, almost happy. He found himself a bit envious of Surreal and her family. She'd settled down with a mate and already had two litters of her own. Had he and his family stuck around in Alacritia when everything had gone to hell he might have done the same. Instead he focused most of his efforts helping his siblings and his aging parents when they'd moved away. After their parents had past it'd just been him, Cross, and Crucible. Now it was just him and for once in his life he actually realized he wanted his own family. Now his problem was he knew nobody except for his pack mates. He needed to get out and meet new faces, get to know them, and maybe go from there. Course he realized he also turned seven this coming summer. He finally felt like he was getting old and that bothered him. Even if he had the long lifespan of his mother (she'd lived far past what anyone had expected her to) he still only had a short span of time to have kids of his own. He shoved the thoughts of his impending mid-life crisis out of his head as he walked. This place wasn't green or beautiful by the standards of other places. It lacked that certain charm that most areas held during the spring, but by right it held its own kind of beauty. It was lined with all sorts of different shades of red, brown, and tan and the smoothness of the place astounded him. It was hardly livable as he didn't smell any water around and the prey was obviously scarce, but it was an interesting territory regardless. Even if it was a little hot, especially with his bushy coat. He was nosing around for a water source when the scent of a female caught his attention. Creed had always been the curious type so naturally he followed it. It took only a few minutes to wind past some pillars and walls before he turned a corner and spotted the girl. His approach had been anything but quiet as his intentions hadn't been to sneak up on her. Regardless he let out a soft woof to alert her of his presence and accompanied it with a soft smile and a wag of his tail. "Hello!" Perhaps he was too friendly, but he couldn't help himself.
