Destiny is Calling Me!
Torin was a bit in his own mind as he went through the motions of his patrol, his paws carried him along the inner rim of the scent markers and would stop at regular intervals to mark the border where it needed to be refreshed but otherwise he was mentally checked out. He was just going through the motions; his mind on the many many other issues he knew he needed to deal with...

Torin rocked on his toes, his whole body a live wire as he waited.
