Ain't No Rest For The Curious [Lyulf]

Lyulf nodded thoughtfully at her reply, sticking his nose as close to the ice as he dared. It looked like they went pretty far down there, they must have been already old when the area flooded and then froze, and who knew how long ago that was. His tail wagged back and forth a few times, excited at the prospect of what wonders could be hidden beneath the ice. If only there was some way to get down there... When Natha asked him about fish, he perked up, head tilting to the side as he thought about it. "I'd think that the trees would rot if there was free flowing water somewhere below, they don't look like the kind of trees that grow happily in lakes," he chewed out, thinking over every word as he said them. If it was salt water, it probably wouldn't freeze this solidly, and it would for sure eat away at the trees. However, it could be moving, but further down than his eyes could perceive. He hummed softly, trying to figure out how all of this could have transpired. He was pulled out of his thoughts by Natha's voice, asking it if he had it in him to explore one last land together. He paused for a moment, a flicker of a more somber emotion crossing his tan marked features. He hadn't really thought of parting ways, even though he knew that it was unrealistic to stay with the lynx forever. It had just been so long since he had had easy company, that the idea of losing it settled like a rock in his belly. Carefully he nodded, resetting his face to his more stoic look. She spoke of finding a den in that area though, if he came with her, at least he would know where to find her if he ever was feeling terribly lonely again... that is if she would allow that of course. "Sounds like a plan," he said, albeit softer than his previous wonderment. He would be sad to part ways with Natha, but would forever be thankful for the past few days that she had given him. It was a good heads up on exploring all of the north, after all, and most were places that he couldn't have gotten to without her assistance. |
