Redhawk Caldera Carpe diem

Unbeknownst to Elwood, Wildfire had the same thought about inviting Finley and Eljay along on their little adventure. He would make sure to follow through with it in a few months, once Eljay had matured a little more -- both physically and mentally -- and they could take a day trip. He knew he wouldn't want to be away from the Caldera for any longer than that.

He tilted his head slightly to one side, listening as Wildfire described her affinity for scouting. She felt that she got to experience what the wilderness had to offer while knowing that she had a place to rest her head come nightfall, should she choose to return home at the end of the day. "It sounds interesting," Elwood agreed, before adding his own two cents. "It's not my cup of tea, but I'm glad that you've found something that you love doing." And he felt the same way about Finley; although he would always worry when she was gone, he would never want to keep her from her passion.
