Whitewater Gorge the salesman's like what up,

Set before the Great Expedition, in Easy's timeline.

The dark girl sped back toward Morningside, knowing she'd been gone far too long, and Daddy would start to worry if she didn't get back to the plateau before he laid down to sleep. In fact, it would probably cause pack-wide panic, and Easy did not want to be the source of a false alarm after all her family had been through.

Of course, it was not long before she ran into trouble - trouble in the shape of a giant gorge she was sure hadn't been here on the way down!

"When did they put this in?" she called out, moving toward the silvery shape of another kid about her age. She'd had only good experiences with children, and assumed that a child could not be dangerous at all, because children were fun, like her.
