Sea Lion Shores somewhere I am a god somewhere else a monster

Arrille thought about leaving. Going off on his own, away from the shore. But, that would mean leaving Maude alone, and Arrille couldn't do that. Not after all Maude had done for the boy. Despite this, Arrille was getting distance from Maude, going here and there away from where Maude and him had stopped for the time being.

Arrille spotted a wolf off in the distance. Looked to be close to his age, he thought, so he decided, why not chance a meeting? Although halfway through getting close to them, he stopped and paused, thinking about whether he should.
