Seeing Castles in the Clouds [Sparrow and Rory]

It sure was easy to get side tracked. Well, typically he wasn't someone who got distracted easily, but ever since agreeing to accompany Iskra he found himself like that often. He'd tried to be as helpful as possible with the plants and he'd managed to get a pretty decent collection going as they traveled. At least Iskra would have some proof of her efforts to show this man she'd made an agreement with when she finally returned to him. In the mean time Rory was happy storing the herbs he'd collected in a rolled up badger hide he'd borrowed from his mother.

He was just stashing his homemade satchel of herbs when Iskra's howl caught his attention. Whoops, he was going to be late if he didn't hurry. He shoved the hide in some bushes to come back for later and trotted to catch up with the starry coated female. He was hoping his presence at Abaven would make more of an impact, but if it boiled down to it, how much could Abaven really help? Unless they'd gotten their numbers up since his last visit? Still, he was curious to see what Sparrow's thoughts were on these Abraxas wolves.

He spotted Iskra easily enough and thankfully Sparrow hadn't arrived yet so he wasn't late. He came to stand beside the galaxy woman and he smiled softly at her. "You seem antsy." He was trying to lighten to mood some, he'd never been fond of tense situations. Besides, it wasn't as though they were meeting an alpha he'd never met before. Sparrow had seemed pretty level headed and nice when he'd met her.
