Redhawk Caldera uncast shadow of a southern myth

Notably lacking the speed of light, Eljay hurried as fast as he could to get to the meeting when Aunt Fox called. Yet when he arrived halfway through her explanation of what had happened to the Caldera, he realised right away that he was late anyway. Ears folded back apologetically and Eljay's tail hung low at his hocks as he looked at Uncle P and Aunt Fox as the news of the bug infestation was shared.

Eljay's heart raced when Uncle Peregrine mentioned that they might have to leave the Caldera — he didn't want to leave; he'd never left the Caldera and he never really wanted to. Well, maybe eventually... But not yet. Some day. But not now. And not while mommy was pregnant, on top of all the other things going on. He frowned as he listened, but didn't pipe up, just trying not to panic.
