Marshal flided lazily in the sky above him, and the Warlord seemed to have found a peace he had been lacking before. His smile came easily, as he looked out across the ocean that touched Sea’s Plains. As he made his way back up towards Tall Grass Plains and Weeping Woods, he caught the stale scent of his children, and Zee. His wife had allowed them some time outside the pack? The knowledge surprised him, he had expected Zee to be a more cautious mother then she had been thus far.
