You're Gonna Go Far, Kid

The itch is back, tickling his paws and nagging his brain until Enki can’t ignore it anymore and he is forced to step away from Insomnia lands in search of new and exciting places. Today, he does not have to travel far, for, in the land that butts up against the gorge that many, including himself call home, he finds a sort of oasis. The work of some once staggeringly large river is found here, and, while it is now dry, its careful craftsmanship can be seen in the winding way that the valley was formed.

While the winter so far has been temperate, the normally vibrate green grass is slowly dulling and clumps of brown and yellow can be seen here and there as he walks. The warm sun hangs around his shoulders as Enki slowly descends the naturally formed slope as he wanders slowly down into the valley, bright blue eyes keen with interest as she scans the land, enthralled with the beauty found just feet from Insomnia borders.

Birds sing happily overhead as a few deer graze on the valley floor, their heads raising to watch the wolf’s approach before lowering once more as they realize that he is no threat to them. Luckily, for these prey animals, they are correct as Enki instead moves toward the lazily winding river that cuts through the land, the water’s sparkling drawing him closer to it.
