Naiche’s feet were coated in mud from the hocks down. Who would have thought the swamplands were that much of a pain? Naiche had figured out quickly enough to spend most of his time skirting the main part of the swamp and staying in the lake. However, towards the end there had been no way around going through some mud. Not that he was upset at getting a bit dirty but the mud had been the type that could ensnare those who were less cautious. He had come this way hoping to see the beach and he had stood on it for a few minutes and acknowledged how pleasant it was, but that was then when the sun had still been higher up in the sky. Now the sun was almost gone and Naiche was standing in the waters himself, though only far enough that it covered up the muddy feet, shifting them in the water to slowly work out the mud. Was it really worth it? Surprisingly Pan seemed to be enjoying himself. The pangolin was swimming nearby. Naiche hadn’t even realized it could swim! When he had got in the water around the swamp the pangolin had stayed put on his head but out here it was doing a decent dog-paddle and it looked to have a little smile on its face. Naiche let out a slow sigh. Exploring was good, and the scent of the beach here was different from the beach on the armada lands. There were no trees shooting out from the watery landscape and the sand was made of a different substance. It was nice to look at, but Naiche was quite happy to feel that the armada had the better plot. Sirius truly had picked out the best land in the golden wolf’s mind. Naiche thought of leaving the beach about now and heading back to the armada, but he didn’t want to traverse that swamp at night. The golden wolf knew for a fact those waters he’d come through had crocodiles in them and Naiche couldn’t swear he’d see one of those in the water before it got to him. He could go all the way around the swamp but that would take more time? He had wanted to see the beach but another part of him wanted to go work with his pack mates on training. Saltwater still screwed up Naiche’s nose when it was too potent all around him. He didn’t notice the other wolf farther off until his ears heard the splash. Looking up and seeing a soaked wolf head come up out of the water had the young wolf grinning. So, he wasn’t alone. “Come on Pan, let's go see who it is.” Even as Naiche moved closer to her though Naiche had to acknowledge he was out of luck on catching familiar smells from her. Maybe if she hadn’t just soaked herself in the saltwater. Was she Ashen? She wasn’t armada, Naiche was confident of that much at least. It was neutral turf though so it could be anyone. So it was the wheat-coated wolf moved a bit closer but stopped a few lengths away to see her reaction to his presence. Naiche loved to work by scent first and he had just now learned something important. Never meet stranger’s near an ocean. It was actually bugging him.
