Mercury was more than pleased to be shown the territory that would likely become their home. Walking side by side with his childhood friend as they departed the Armada territory. Everything in this land was new to him, and the towering redwood trees caught his eye as they passed quietly beneath them.

“Where's the ocean from here?” he asked, trying to get his bearings as they arrived. If he wanted to rebuild any sort of ship, he wanted to know how far he would have to travel.

There was a hint of spring to be found here in the budding earth. New life growing before then, like the perfect symbol of what they would build here. “I love it” he said softly.

As he drew nearer, he attempted to swipe a paw at her side, almost unbalancing as he did so. “I did! It’s a good space for us until we move” he agreed.
