follow the yellow brick wall

Scouting the north was fun and all, but Orion figured he had gone far enough. He'd spend some time in this last place and then perhaps turn south for a while. It wouldn't be the worst thing to find himself in a warmer climate before winter set in. Depending on how severe the season was perhaps he would return, but for now, he felt as if he had exhausted his curiosity. There was more he would have to familiarize himself with, and he had yet to pick up any scent of Jup or Aerndis, even near their old home. Why not check elsewhere?

The thing was, he'd noticed something strange up in the distance. He had vague memories of this place, but had never explored it properly. The Wall. His tail plumed over his back as he picked up his gait, ears upright and eager. This would be a good send off from the north, right? Hopefully he'd find at least something interesting. The structure was strange. No one had ever been able to tell him where it had come from exactly, and while it seemed to make sense that it was likely the same creatures who had left all manner of strange relics behind scattered throughout the lands. Orion preferred to believe it was really a race of extinct giant wolves who were able to move stones as easily as he moved pebbles. But, regardless.

He had been walking a ways when a dark figure ahead caught his eye. He froze, but a moment later realized that it was definitely another wolf. There also appeared to be a bird who had spotted the wolf as well, and seemed to be sticking around. Huh. Weird. Oh well, none of his business. He trotted forwards a ways to close the gap, but slowed to a walk so he didn't startle them. Her, he guessed, as he got closer. Her coat was darker than his and also less... vibrant. She also looked to be a bit smaller than he was, but most wolves were. He called out when he believed he was close enough to hear her, but kept a ways away unless she was skittish. Or crazy. Either. "Hey! Weird place, right? Do you live around here?" Maybe if she did she'd be able to explain it better than his guesses. He was still holding out for giant wolves, and he would take an 'I'm not sure' as partial confirmation. Never hurt to try.
