Great Bear Wilderness A Disheartening Reunion

This post is making me so sad

Itsy stood in a moment of silence as the fox scratched a name into the tree. She recognized the name, and just seeing it made her feel a sudden sadness. Scratch.

When the fox asked her name, she answered right away, but quietly at the same time. "Itsy."

There was a moment of silence, and the small wren bowed her head in sadness. But she lifted when the fox said something. 'You better not die' She looked him right in the eyes as she responded.

"I won't anytime soon. You can be sure of that."
