Wheeling Gull Isle bridge to somewhere

I may have gone a wee bit overboard with my post. x-x"

The journey to the Wilds had been a long one, but the second she'd reached the ocean again she found the trip to have been well worth it. She'd had the privilege of meeting another girl when she'd first reached the sea, and had enjoyed chatting with her. When they had needed to part ways, however, Muirgen decided to stay by the sea. The large body of water was what she'd been seeking, after all, and there was no way she would leave it so early on. Besides, the place she'd met the girl before just so happened to be the same shore that held so many pinnipeds—the same creatures she viewed as being distant cousins to herself, as did the rest of her family and the rookery she'd be born into. The sea lions had acted towards her as if she wished to eat them, and it saddened her greatly when she realized that there had to be a reason for that. Some wolves of Teekon had to be hunting the animals, and after getting very upset over it, she'd decided she would work as a guardian for them, a protector, of sorts. Eventually, a few had started to realize she did not plan to harm them and allowed her to get closer, but not overly so. As time went on, she hoped she would be able to lay among them, but did not expect such results right away.

Muirgen had been sunbathing in the sand close to her pinniped cousins when something caught her attention. Her sea green gaze had landed upon a land mass a bit farther up the coast, and it had piqued her curiosity greatly. She rolled over onto her stomach and set her sights on it, slowly rising to her feet as she did so. The selkie glanced at the sleek forms of the sea lions who were sunbathing just as she had been, and gave them a soft notice to her leaving. She informed them that she would be back, and that she just needed to check something out, then leaned down a picked her seal skin up. The girl placed it upon her back gently, and after making sure it was in place so it would not fall, she started off in the direction of the island. She'd considered entering the water right away and swimming out to it, but decided to wait until she was closer to do that. After all, there was always a chance that there was a much easier way to reach the small piece of land, and she didn't want to waste anymore energy than necessary. Growing closer, however, she realized she just might need to use more energy than originally thought, as he optics were quick to fall upon the form of a wolf—and a male, no less.

Luckily, the young seal had grown a bit more confident, so she was not as skittish as the distance between them was shortened. Still, she made a note to stop a decent length away, just barely within speaking range. For the time being, she kept her seal skin draped across her back instead of held between her jaws. One wrong move from the male, however, and she would be quick to snatch it from her back and run off into the sea. It was a quick way to escape for her, and she was certain Lir would provide her with protection with his waves if the man attempted to follow after. That was just the worst case scenario, though, so for now she kept herself as calm and relaxed as she was able. “Are you interested in the island as well?” she inquired, having yet to realize that the wolf had a blue nose. Had she'd noticed she would had asked if he was alright, or if he was freezing. She'd never met anyone with a blue nose before, and would definitely end up being fascinated by it.
