Redhawk Caldera not enough to go around

Elwood couldn't help but be amused by the jay's response to his greeting. Though there appeared to be a language barrier of sorts, it was interesting to try and interact with an avian. His previous experience with winged animals had been, well, trying to eat them -- he would refrain from mentioning that in front of Jaws' friend. "I don't blame him," he replied with a chuckle.

Once the two males were both full of water, they started to make their way back to the tree that Jaws had previously attempted to mark. There was a companionable silence between them; Elwood wasn't nearly as talkative as Peregrine was, and it seemed that Jaws was similar. But when the other male broke the silence, Elwood quickly took his bait.

"So," he repeated, glancing over at Jaws with a friendly smile. "You working on the warden trade?" he asked; either way, his efforts at the border would be appreciated by the leadership.
