Big Salmon Lake 'cause it's home, but it's gone

In Rannoch's attempt of recognizing the range of his companions, the wide-set male had found himself slipping from the protective canopy of the forest and into the open as he followed the scent trail of his brother, Cypress. Though he knew that his raven-haired sibling was interested in migrating, Rannoch found himself sidetracked by his sibling, finding himself all the more curious to see what Cypress had been up to since he had proposed the move. He knew that he'd get on track in due time, but, for now, Rannoch would now explore with the intentions of seeking his brother, his previous ambitions slowly succumbing to the importance of checking in on his sulphuric-eyed sibling. 

Cypress' trail lead him to the vast expanse of Big Salmon Lake, and as he stepped into the barren lands, Rannoch paused in an attempt to get used to the harsh lighting. It was mid-day, the sun sitting on its apex in the sky, and Rannoch was not used to just how bright the sun was. When he felt somewhat used to the drastic shift in lighting, the turquoise eyed man pressed forward once more, following Cypress' trail to the lake's shore.
