Stavanger Bay We're all we need

Floki was eager to introduce Wildfire to the beach and the ocean, his childhood companions. The trip was an easy one, made even more so by the friendly banter between the two youths. Although he hadn't been back to Stavanger Bay since the move to Moonspear, he still remembered the way and even found his heart rate accelerating with excitement as they drew near.

He breathed deeply, inhaling the familiar and comforting scent of salty air as the sand wedged itself between his toes. He came to a halt next to Wildfire, his gaze roving the landscape thirstily. It didn't seem to have changed much, and yet he knew that it was subtly different. The waves altered the shape of the shoreline on a daily basis, but to an untrained eye it all looked the same.

Knowing that Wildfire hadn't been to the sea before, Floki urged her forward. "Come on," he said, striding towards the water. "It'll be cold, but just stick your toes in for a second." He paused, his paws sinking into the damp sand as a frigid wave sluiced over his feet, laughing through gritted teeth.
