i guess we can pretend we've never been here

For a moment, Scald stood there and looked at the ones who had come. Would he miss them? Well, Sparrow might be tagging along with Deluge so he wouldn't miss her much and that Inferno girl was new, hardly knew her. But Rivin? Eh, he doubted she would miss him when he was gone. The realization almost put a sour note in his expression, but he hid it well. Instead, he looked around. Why come back here? The sand was interesting, but there wasn't much outside of that. They could use the shore to fish, sure, but they had the isle and archipelago for that as well. What did this place bring? A bridge perhaps? Did his father have larger plans? Plans he wasn't telling anyone else? Kicking at the sand, Scald continued to wander away from the water and toward the dry, yellow grass that whistled and waved from the top of the dunes.
