Ankyra Sound Ocean Breeze

More traveling. More wandering. The back and forth of his journey was becoming a little redundant. He'd seen this place before. Not seen that place. How he'd missed some of these areas was beyond him, but at least he was filling in quite a few of the gaps of his mental map of the area. This time, he was traveling more northwest. Than he'd ever gone before. From the mountaintops, he'd seen a wide field of blue in the distance, but something had always pulled him in the other direction before he'd gotten a change to really see what was out there.

Kerosene decided not to let anything distract him this time. One paw after the other, he pushed himself towards the large body of water and wasn't looking back until he found it. The trees thinned as he walked. The air grew thicker and more wild as he approached the water. He'd never smelled anything quite like it before, but salt was heavy upon the breeze. There was weight to it he'd never quite felt before, but it tangled in his fur in a way that was strange. It wasn't like the crisp clean air of everything he'd seen before.

He kept going. He'd not seen this giant water quite yet and he wasn't going to stop until he found it. Fortunately, that didn't take long. The solid ground gave way into something softer. Sand. It was hot against his paws and his body seemed to sink into it with every heavy step he made. It was slow going, but slowly it seemed to harden beneath his feet until the damp sand became firm and far easier to walk upon. He made his way to the water, watching the waves roll against the shore for a moment. Thirsty, he decided to take a sip. he lowered his head to catch a wave and, "Fuck that shit." It was awful.

Kero lifted a wrist to wash away the dribbles of brine from his chin. Ocean water was definitely not for drinking. Damn. And there was so much of it too. He frowned at the waves for a moment before he decided he might as well explore since he was in the area. He walked along the water's edge, letting the waves roll over his paws until he spied a grey wolf in the distance. Kero trotted up to him. "Hey. Did you know this water sucks?" Not a greeting per-say, but something.
