Emberwood Checkup

As the woods lit up, Hush began to get a better look at the woods they were in. He didn't know trees by smell, but he knew them by sight. And as the soft glow of sunlight reflected off of the silvery bark of the aspen trees, Hush got the jist of what this wood might be called. Something with fire, most like, given what aspens look like in fall. But already, spring was around the corner. He could feel it in his bones, smell it in the air. The thought of warmth in this land, in his far northern home, excited him. Hush looked at his companion, noticing that same unfocused gaze in his female compatriot. He chuffed to get her attention, the gestured deeper into the woods. They could explore these woods together; better with another than alone, after all.
