Felltree Marsh The journey begins

Zephyr had talked with Sen earlier about their leaving, and though he was sad to go he knew it was for the best. Rana had vanished, as well as almost if not all of the other Seadogs. Chusi and Sen were all he had left in the world right now, and even if Sen hated his guts he would go for the little pup she was raising. Chusi liked him, so he told himself, and he needed to be there to protect her if she were to need it. 
The dark woman called their departure, and with great strides Zephyr turned and cantered after them. They wouldn't wait, he was sure, for someone who meant very little now. It didn't take him long to find them, slowing and trotting up on the other side of Chusi and flicking his grassy orbs around them. Nobody would hurt them if he had anything to say about it. The ebony brute stayed silent, dipping his head in silent support of the two and simply following.
