Neverwinter Forest the wolverine explores

@Skagos

Daybreak heralded a cool morning, dew coating everything in sight. It felt wondrous beneath his inured pads; a sort of balm you could experience only in the morn. What little light that perforated the dense canopy above was enough to wake him up. Emerging from his makeshift abode, Tatsuya opened his maw wide to let out an echoing yawn. Shaking the sleep from his body, volcanic regard surveyed the area. Neverwinter Forest...A more accurate name would be Gloompine Forest but he wasn't in the habit of changing territory names. After all, that was not what he had set out to do. He left Ouroboros Spine in search of medicinal plant life not native to home. There was only so much the Spine could offer.
INDENTNobody had stopped him from leaving...but they did say their farewells. Tatsuya left with a smile and promises to return. I'll be back soon. Don't have too much fun without me.
INDENTPlacing an array of flimsy pine branches in front of his den, Tatsuya set off on his way. The ground here was damp and caliginous, home to moss and lichen alike. Speaking of lichen...Do caribou even come around these parts? Maybe he should retrieve some. If he could even acquire the damn things. They're not particularly easy to get, mainly growing on treetops. But the air here smelled fresh and equally dank. If the opportunity arose to seize one or two lichens, he would.
INDENTWeaving through the forest, he crept closer to Silvertip Mountain. Tatsuya did not know a single thing about them and he did not care to. As far as they were concerned, he was but a rogue looking for frilly plants. He would like to keep it that way too.
