Phantom Hollow Give it to us raw — and wriggling!

So many Gollum Quotes. @Sage

Judas came out of his den, looking around to see the new devastation that had been caused by a droning swarm that had passed through. Trees left bare, shrubs no longer existing. This was new to him. He had never seen such devastation in one place before. It brought sorrow to the wolf side of the coywolf. But the coyote side, he revelled in it. Enjoyed seeing the sight of the wolves home destroyed.

"What..what is this?" Judas murmured, eyes filled with the fear of the unknown. What could have caused so much devastation? He had to wonder, what else had been destroyed?

Sage was getting use to the land now stripped of its greenery, for the most part Phantom Hollow was easily concealed with its large amount of trees exceeding large heights, but of course the ground was practically a wasteland. Shelter had been easy to find during their attack on Teekon, though the affects afterward remained. She roamed the barren earth, almost mourning the loss of greenery. 

While doing so, a voice was heard. Easily recognized as Judas's. She turned to see him not too far away and padded up behind him. "The work of locust." She spoke, trying her best for her tone to be stoic.

He flinched at the sound of another's voice, then relaxed when he saw who came. The name she spoke, it was unfamiliar to him, despite his roaming travels. "Locust? What are these..locust?" Judas asked, looking back to the destruction. The other voice in his head made a note of these locust, and to learn as much as possible about them.

While overlooking what was left, he recalled his purpose for coming out. "Sage, I have a favor to ask. And no, it's not for me if you are wondering that" he added, not bothering to look at her. He hadn't been doing that with those he spoke with lately, afraid to see the fear or anger.
