Let's Walk This Wonderland
Antheia

Contrary to many of the other wolves he had run across, Antheia did not seem to mind him prattling on about his studies. If anything, she enjoyed the conversation, and even began contributing her own stories to the mix! It was a refreshing change of pace from the others he'd met who would roll their eyes or ignore him or tell him to shut up. Having someone to converse with without feeling like a bother felt nice. Milo was more than a little surprised to hear that Antheia had never been to Boreas. She struck him as such a worldly canine, it would have been easy for him to assume she had seen far more than just the small southern continent by now. But he did suppose even the most worldly of travelers had at least a few places they had never been to. Ah, and was he not one of those travelers? Still so young, with so much left to see? The world was large and vast, and it would take him a lifetime to be able toes it all—a lifetime he was willing to commit to his studies and the pursuit of knowledge. Admittedly, it could be a lonely road to walk though, and Milo was happy for the company of others along the way, even if it was temporary. As if reading his mind, Antheia asked if he would like to go explore the ruins to the west with her. His teal eyes lit up like fireworks and an excited smile took its place across his face. "I would be delighted to accompany you! I haven't spent much time over there, and there's always more to see, especially in a place like that! Ooooh, maybe I can find some more artifacts too!" he exclaimed, bouncing back in the direction of the island, already putting the Runestones behind him and eager to reach the more modern ruins. He couldn't wait to show her how much bigger they were out there! "Come on, I know the way! You're not gonna believe them when you see them!" Milo crunched his way through the snow back towards the northeast of Auster, anxious to show her around the Forgotten Isle and do some more exploring and research himself. The last time he had been there with Plague, the weather had been too nasty and prevented him from doing much poking around. Maybe as the weather improved, they'd be able to see more together.
