Tell The World, I'm Coming Home

As the pair walk through the night, Outlaw telling his grand stories and Meadow listening closely, the duo make their way toward the hot springs. By the time the small healer’s paws find the familiar paths of her home, dawn is breaking across the horizon. Swaths of colors blaze across the sky, lightening the dark night sky into a patchwork of oranges, reds and blues. Meadow watches the display with tired, wonder filled eyes, attention starting to split between her friend, the sky and trying not to trip over her paws.

Usually, Meadow is the type of wolf that likes to go to bed before the moon has a chance to rise too far and wake early, starting the day before most have awaken. This is not usual for her and her body is telling her how unhappy it is that she has stayed up so late. A huge, long yawn erupts from her mouth and surprises her. Sheepishly, she looks to Outlaw and says, “Excuse me.” before focus her attention back on her paws. Sleepy smile rests on her lips and, when she smells the familiar scent of her pack lands, Meadow is happy to be home.

Stopping a short distance outside of the invisible boundary, directing Outlaw to follow her example with a silent dip of her head, Meadow turns her gaze to Outlaw and tells him, “Okay Outlaw. We will wait here until Resin comes to see us.” Tilting her head back, Meadow releases a short howl, asking for Resin to join them. In the call is the message, ‘potential pack member’, letting her sister know what to expect. Once that is done, the small healer sinks down onto her haunches and looks to her new friend with a smile. She tells him, “It shouldn’t be too long. How are you holding up?” Smile is soft as she waits for Resin with Outlaw, trying not to yawn again.
