Syne started to reach out to help the pup stand when he started to wobble on his three legs, but she stopped herself. She didn't know if he would be irritated by her help or not. She knew some wolves didn't like being helped when they had a disability of some sort and she didn't know Talon well enough to know if he was like that. Besides, she was kinda proud of the boy for being able to still get on with his life even though he was missing something as important as a leg. She watched as he stood and turned toward the center of the island, glancing back at her. His words broke her heart a little. He was probably right about that. She refused to let the sadness show in her features. She just smiled and padded up beside him, looking down at him happily. "Who says? No one said you have to be a fast explorer. Slow and steady win the race, right?"
She led the way further into the island, letting the little man set the pace. She walked along beside him, taking in the scenery. Everything seemed to be as geen and lush as the sand they had walked up on. It was amazing to the brown-marked fea how an island could possibly be a solid color like this. It certainly lived up to its name, the Emerald Island. She glanced down at her new companion and smiled. He amazed her too. She was afraid he was going to get too tired to swim back though, so she offered, "Would you like for me to carry you, Talon? You can ride on my back and we can be explorers together." She grinned, her kind eyes shining. She stopped and folded her legs under her, getting down low to the ground so he could climb up onto her back. "Come on, it'll be fun! Pretend I'm a bear and you're an awesome explorer that made friends with a bear or something," she said, laughing a little at the thought of Talon riding a bear. She was trying to make it more fun for him and she waited to see what he would say about it.
