He was getting a bit off track now, but that was alright. The moment he'd laid eyes on the island Malleus had known he needed to visit it. He'd never been on an island before and had it been wholly separated from the mainland it was unlikely he'd have bothered with the swim, but there was a convenient little strip of land that connected the two and that made it hard to resist. Malleus wanted to know what kind of life, both animal and plant, called the island home. After reaching the beach, Malleus paused to take it all in. The island was mountainous; the many peaks seemingly smashed close together in an attempt to fit as many as possible on the island. They looked like hell to climb so he wasn't going to try. No, he'd stay on the beach for awhile and then venture into the forest; perhaps even collect a plant or two to study. His eyes were drawn to a grey blob on the beach. He couldn't tell what it was at first - a dead seal, perhaps? - but then as he padded closer the shape became more wolflike and the markings began to look familiar. Jouko? It was, wasn't it? That young healer with all the fun facts and the bundle stuffed with creepy things. "Looking for something that pairs well with maggots for your next demonstration?" he called as he approached. "Might I suggest sand fleas?" |
