I'm Out Of Reason

Alastor had identified the problem with the land bridge very soon after they'd moved to Alias Island the first time around, and when the Mendacium family had returned to establish their pack on the island, he had decided it was an issue that would need to be rectified. Sure, the land bridge provided some security when the tide came in, but it also made it that much harder to get to the mainland if they needed to. What if someone fell ill and needed some herbs that only grew on the mainland? Would they wait half the day to be able to cross over and gather it? No, they needed a new solution. Alastor had come up with the concept of a buoyant bridge that would lie on the land bridge when the tide was low and rise with the water as the tide came in. He didn't know how to manufacture it, but it seemed like a plausible solution.

He had been discussing it over with Manea when a call came out from the mainland for them. Alert ears perked and black eyes peered off towards the opposite shore. Alastor didn't recognize the voice, but it was distinctly female. At Manea's behest, he followed alongside her until they found the small violet and black fae waiting at their borders. He definitely didn't know this wolf, and shot his mate a curious look while they approached her. Manea greeted the fae first while Alastor sized her up, obsidian eyes running over her diminutive form that stood almost two feet shorter than them. "Alastor, Genetor of Elysium," he greeted her when Manea left space for him to introduce himself. He let Manea do most of the talking, simply keeping his eyes on her while he considered who she was and what she wanted with them.
