Into the Sunset

Gareth began scouting ahead from his brother, venturing off on his own for a while. They tended to drift apart and eventually find each other again anyway so it wasn't anything unusual for the pair of galactic males. Navy dipped paws carried him up the slope along the falls to where he had begun setting up a bit of a campsite for himself. There were some old dens in the area and he picked one and began to clear out any small limbs and leaves that might have blown into it and making himself a quick bed of thick grasses. Eventually he'd have a fur to lay over it as well with the deer he had caught for himself, he'd just need to finish skinning and prepping the hide first.

For now he focused on preparing a dinner out of the meat he hunted. He could have just eaten it as is and most of the time he did, but since he was on his own with nothing else to do he decided to be a bit extra and prep a treat for himself. He gathered some flavorful herbs and cut some of the venison into smaller pieces, ripping apart the herbs and letting the meat rest with the herbs rolled around the chunks of meat while he gathered some wood for a fire. By the time the sun began to creep toward the horizon and began to paint the falls with hues of oranges and pinks he had a good fire going with the meat sizzling on a flat stone at the edge of it. Occasionally he'd use a stick to move or turn over the pieces of venison as it cooked, but otherwise he just relaxed back into a grassy patch and enjoyed the sunset.

They hadn't been in Boreas for long, but so far he was pretty pleased with the lands he was finding. The mountains further north where they had first passed through weren't all that hospitable, but the further south he went the more lovely it became. Of course he didn't know how Bishop would feel about it, but surely his more headstrong brother couldn't argue with warm, pleasant weather and scenery like this. He waited for his dinner to finish cooking and looked out over the land in the meantime with a little smile on his lips. The only thing that would have made this better would be someone to spend the evening with, but he wouldn't complain too much.
