Moonspear but after everything i still believe in true love

for @Charon and @Amekaze (:

honestly, it was some miracle that terance had managed to make it to the caldera. his mothers instructions had helped, but he was truly surprised that his nose had done such a great job of guiding him... plus the help of a few strangers. moonspear was easier. osprey had made it clear that it was straight up through something called bramblepoint, which was actually very helpful. sure enough, the mountain was visible as soon as he'd left the foliage, and he was feeling more hopeful about this place.

the mountain was gorgeous! and terance was truly in awe. he couldn't wait to stargaze from some of the tallest peaks-- maybe he could even touch some of them...! but he shouldn't get ahead of himself, for all he knew, charon was dead in a ditch somewhere as well, and that would just suck.

he repeated his howl for leadership just as he'd done in the caldera-- though now that he thought about it, leadership hadn't even come! finley and elwood had instead sent a tiny, bitchy, rock-grinder to come chase him off, he hoped that wouldn't happen again. he waited, submissive, ready to greet charon and be able to settle down.
