You found me now and you heard my call

Going to bring this to a close now :)

Luke listened patiently to Osprey's wisdom about ghosts, having underestimated how passionate she was about the specters. Still, he found her imagination and willingness to share with him her stories rather charming, and he hardly noticed the passage of time or the amount of distance they were covering. Side by side the pair came upon the borders to the plateau, and Luke stopped before crossing them.

"Home sweet home," Luke smiled at her, his tail gently wagging. He had no doubt she could make it from here, and did not want to dampen her spirits by offering to accompany her further, so he made his farewell. He reached out and placed a lick upon her cheek, one of comfort and friendship. "It will all work out in the end," he said. "Perhaps we'll meet again and you can tell me about the other ghosts."
