Neverwinter Forest a game of turtle

This song came on when I was writing this post, which I will take as a sign, as it's from "Lost and Delirious." Ah, what a gorgeous piece!

He spent most of a day with his family, then set out on yet another hunting venture, seeing as the last one had been a crapshoot. His tracking led him northwest and he skirted around the spine's territory and found himself in Neverwinter Forest. He couldn't figure out why it seemed familiar until he suddenly remembered that he'd come here with Junior once to collect berries. The resultant sense of nostalgia was so strong that Peregrine froze in his tracks to relive that distant memory.

A strange noise scattered his thoughts and he turned to his left, peering quizzically through the trees. His black ears leaned forward as he tried to identify the source. At first, he wondered if he was hearing the footfalls of a large, hoofed beast. Then he saw a flash of white and he trotted nearer, only to realize with some surprise that it was Luke. He appeared to be batting a rock around the forest floor, though a closer look revealed that it was a dead (or soon to be dead) turtle.

"Luke!" Peregrine said, trying to catch the other wolf's attention in case he hadn't noticed him yet. "Are you playing foosball with yourself or something? Do you need another player?" he joked, surprising himself with the friendly banter. He didn't take to outsiders very easily, yet there was something so likable about the charismatic Lukas.
