nice to sea you again

This was the absolute furthest he had gone since he had been taken by the Vikings. He kept expecting any moment now for Vidarr to appear behind him, and snatch him away. That Demon did have a habit of always appearing when he was least wanted. He had intended to go out near this farm but he had caught Spider’s scent. The annoying, tiny pup always had a habit of showing up near the Viking pack. It was rather one sided - as a slave, Strai could never turn up at Spider’s door. But the smaller wolf more than made up for it.

Today? Today the tables would turn. He fully intended to sneak up on the little dark wolf. Or at least, that had been the plan until he reached the end of Boreas, and thought that Spider had entered the water.

He immediately began to scan the shoreline, looking for signs of the wolf. As he did so, he began to scowl. There would be no sneaking up now, and it was difficult for Strai to follow. He hadn’t done much about his ignorance of swimming yet. He’d never had a chance to learn before his parents were… well.

Just as he was resigning himself to leaving Spider to it, he spotted the dark wolf. They hadn’t entered the water after all! Instead they were… playing with it, hovering a paw over the water. He stepped up behind the other wolf, not speaking until he was directly behind him. “Whatcha doing?” He asked.
