we survive, it's what we do [ABAVEN SPRING MEETING]

Spirit made his way to the meeting, not particularly hurrying…although he should have. He was content to be back home, away from the island for the most part. The Volcano had settled a bit more, no longer an immediate danger to them and for that he was happy. Spirit had missed the tribute to their fallen kin, but the sadness of others made him uncomfortable, he didn’t feel sad and he wasn’t entirely sure why. Perhaps it was his lack of a bond with those that had passed on; perhaps it was something else entirely, only time would tell. The youth was not the first to arrive, but by the looks of it he also wouldn’t be the last. Only one other sibling had arrived, Void, and Spirit could not help but smile. Making his way to his sibling and bumping him softly on the shoulder with his snout. He remained silent as he slid down into a reclined position next to his tall sibling. At least he had Void there to keep him company.
