Redhawk Caldera rough gem

She brought up Wildfire again and Peregrine actually had a moment to consider their daughter's absence from her new home. She had been by here not so long ago. She'd mentioned breaking up with Floki but had seemed fine otherwise. Peregrine couldn't help but think she hadn't been as okay as she had pretended. If she'd left for that reason or any other, why hadn't she come home to the caldera? He sighed inwardly. The only wolf who could answer these questions was Wildfire herself and now they didn't have a clue where she was. All three original Firebirds were officially in the wind.

Fox's question snagged him from his thoughts. "What?" he asked dumbly, not understanding immediately. Then it clicked. "Hopefully your vision will return once it's less swollen and stuff," he said in a level tone, "but if it doesn't, it's just a matter of adaptation. You get used to it." But he dearly hoped Fox wouldn't have to deal with any of that.
