One way trip

The tusked lady is nice and Jack falls into step beside her, the grin she gives helping the boy relax in her presence. This strange land holds so much beauty and the pup is glad he gets to experience with someone else… even if she is a stranger. His paws are light as they go, the soft moss making the ground feel like a ton of wet sponges are lining the ground. For a moment, he wonders what it would like after it rains; would the moss make squelching sounds and push out water as he passed?

As the woman speaks, Calico’s ear swivels toward her, his head following close behind as he looks up at her. Another grin is given as he says, “I’m just passing through. Mom and the adults of my pack raided another pack close to here and I wanted to see what that pack looked like since I will be going on raids with my mom soon!” It is an exciting prospect and the boy cannot wait to be out there, fighting. Still, he has heard that some adults aren’t fond of the fun the pirates like to have but that doesn’t matter.

Posture relaxed, steps light, Jack doesn’t consider this tucked lady a threat (in fact he thinks she is really pleasant) so he tilts his head back to look up at the canopy above them. He poses a question to his traveling partner, asking “Do you think a lot of rain makes it to the ground? Seems like that canopy is pretty thick.”
