Behind that picket fence

Kai had been spending most of his time in the eastern regions of Boreas lately. Mount Volkan seemed to be a place to him lately, perhaps because of a few interesting wolves he'd met there.. or perhaps merely because he enjoyed the more rugged terrain, a welcome change of pace from the lands he was more accustomed to. Today he'd made the trip around the southern base of the mountain, careful to avoid trespassing on Ruina's carefully marked borders, and head to the familiar sprawling hills to the west of the volcano. He'd been to this place many times before, and it seemed the wolves he met here always left a lasting impression on him, though... Kai wasn't one that tended to forget anyone he met. They were all special, unique in their own rights, though some simply were more memorable. He hadn't expected to reunite with one of those wolves on this beautiful spring day. The weather as about as perfect as it could get, the sun standing high overhead and casting warm rays down on the earth. Spring was in full bloom now, with summer just around the corner, and Kai was not yet sick of the warmth. He lazily veered to the top of one of these hills, his own silvery gazed fixed on the buffalo below. A good hunt sound did sound quite appealing - the last hunt he'd participated in was with Elias, chasing a goat up the treacherous mountainside in the midst of a spring storm. He'd been invigorated by the hunt, and hoped soon he might find another hunting partner of similar skill. Something in the distance, something that was definitely not prey, caught his interest. A female with a grey coat of varying shades stood on the knoll adjacent to his, and it didn't take long for him to recognize her. Wasn't that Daelos? A wide grin broke out across his lips and he began to navigate down the slope of the hill he'd conquered, heading in her direction. After a few minutes he had made his way near the top, panting happily by the time he verified that it definitely was his friend. "Daelos," he greeted her with a fluid dip of his head. "Hyvää iltapäivää." Kai exclaimed, beaming that bright grin of his, his tail flicking behind him. "That means good afternoon in my family's native tongue." It wasn't often he spoke it, but he didn't want to abandon it entirely, even if he found few who understood him. "How have you been?" |
