@Maude — My friends convinced me that Xan should be thrown through a loop, and so I thought a thread with just the two of them might be better suited for that than the alternative. ^^ Hope you don't mind the slight change~

Quite some time had passed since his last trek away from home, and so the boy had eventually found himself heading towards the borders. Of course, he'd told his father of his departure beforehand, and had also included his uncertainty regarding when he might return. The journey had been approved of, and so he'd left immediately. It was not the farthest he'd ever traveled, from what he could remember, but it was a close second; several days had gone into it, after all. Still, he'd not been deterred by the unknown, and had instead pressed forward until nothing looked familiar. He'd entered uncharted waters, and while that should have made him more cautious, he'd continued to walk with confidence in his step. Even when he'd spotted the ocean—it was definitely the largest body of water that he'd ever seen in all his life, since the end couldn't even be located—the Inuit hadn't changed his course of direction, path being set straight for it instead.

Xan had been curious of the water once he'd approached it, the scent being something he'd never smelled before. Of course, he'd tasted the water, only to let it fall from his mouth immediately after in a futile attempt at ridding himself of the awful flavour. Clearly it wasn't drinkable, and so he'd moved on to something else. Only a few steps had been taken before he'd run into a crab, the scuttling creature being followed with his gaze. Could he eat it? An attempt was made, but the thing had managed to get away from him before any bites could be landed. Thereafter his interest was further piqued, and thus began a search for more of the specimen, as well as for a way that he might successfully catch one.
