Whitefish River between two points

Tbh, I hadn't even noticed how long our thread is lmao. I've just been enjoying it! But if you want to conclude it we can too; maybe bring it towards an end here in a round or two? Otherwise I don't mind continuing on. Maybe they could find a cavern or something to explore?

Mordecai nodded his head in agreement. "I was always taught that no pack has to take in lone wolves. I figure if any pack takes them in, or even myself, I owe them. When winter's here they could just as easily leave us out to starve and fend for ourselves. Or attack us." And while he had been run off from a pack a time or two, Mordecai had always found a willing one to take him in. "Where I'm from, our pack was pretty much our family. My parents, my mom's parents, my cousins and siblings and so on. We had a few who weren't related but it was mostly us. Letting someone in made them apart of our family in a way. I wouldn't be surprised if things aren't that way in a lot of places. I know some of them are."

And he knew his famiky had never been jumping for joy when he made it clear he wanted to make his own way into the world. His father had tried to stop him many times before conceding, his brothers were also much the same. Perhapd there would have been high hopes for him in Sedona, but Mordecai had not been interested in them. He didnt even know if he would one day return to them either, having gone so far and out of the way to where he was now. Finding the scrub lands and desert brush of the lower Rockies seemed improbable. "If you find your friend again, do you think you two will stay? I would hate for this to be our only meeting, " he mentioned, coming to the realization that he was enjoying the company.
