Even though the Forest bordered Imperium Valentine hadn't visited it in quite some time. There just wasn't anything worth seeing here and there never was. While not dead per se the Forest wasn't exactly "alive" either. It was bland, horribly boring and kind of dead looking. Honestly he'd only ever found it to be good for brooding. It was dark and a little creepy, and that make it a pretty good place to sulk, but that was all it was good for. There was nothing worth hunting on the ground since the branches blocked out most of the sunlight and allowed very little vegetation to grow. Really, the creep factor was its only bonus and that was really only a bonus if the traveler was a grump.

So why was he in a grumpy forest if he himself wasn't grumpy at that particular moment? Valentine didn't really have a good answer for that. Maybe he'd been hoping there would be some kind of improvement since the last time he'd visited. Surprise, surprise...there wasn't. Same old same old. The forest was as dark, damp and empty as it had been each time and every time he'd visited.

Perhaps he was bored.

Nah, that wasn't it. He had plenty to do, he just wasn't doing it. So what was it then? Restlessness, maybe. Valentine was itching to do something. He didn't know if he needed to hunt or fight or fuck, but he needed to do something. Maybe he could convince Cascade to go on another reconnaissance mission with him. Maybe, just maybe, this time he'd get lucky in more than one way.

Hm, nah, she probably wouldn't go for that. She'd been coming across as a little off lately and he wasn't sure what to make of it. Alright, so that wasn't an option then. What was a restless King to do?



NOTE: Valentine has a female striped skunk companion named Lefty. Unless stated otherwise assume she's present.
