Hometown Glory

Sebastian was not the only one Elwood had told about the chance meeting he'd had with the delta's father.  He'd confided the information in his mate as well, and though Fin had bristled protectively for her baby daddy, that had been about the extent of it.  Her mate had walked away from it unscathed, and other than a few ominous words, it sounded like the man hadn't really said anything overly worrisome.  No threats to storm the Caldera, no promises to do any murdering of anybody...  When all was said and done, it had slipped to the back of Finley's mind, replaced instead by the seemingly insurmountable task of weaning her little Eljay.

Even that had slipped from Finley's mind as she made her way to the borders of the territory.  She had not actually left the safety of the Caldera since her son's birth, and the older Eljay got, the more restless his mother grew to get back to her most beloved pastime - outriding.  She still owed her goddaughter a trip to the waterfall by the Plateau, and though she was nearly ready to leave her son for a few days to go on the journey, she felt pretty rusty when it came to travel overall.

And so she headed to the borders to stretch her limbs for a few hours and to reintroduce herself with the wide, beautiful world beyond the Caldera.  She didn't get too far though before she spotted the grey titan wandering along to the West of her.  Fin paused, wanting to move on, but also feeling compelled to track him down for a quick chat.  She spent so much time those days doing nothing but trying to reason with a toddler, some grown-up talk would probably do her some good.

"'Lo there!" Fin chirped as she trotted hastily towards him, her tail wagging amiably in her wake.
