Redhawk Caldera I think we should tell your mom

He listened as Lagan explained the situation better. He wasn't necessarily surprised that Titmouse had run away -- the boy had an adventurous spirit, coupled with what could only be described as a lack of common sense. It was this second trait that had Elwood worried; how could the young pup survive on his own?

But Lagan continued, adding his theory that he believed Titmouse was with Liffey. Elwood nodded. He hoped that was the case; otherwise, he feared that Titmouse wouldn't stand a chance by himself in the wilderness. Liffey would be capable of taking care of him, at least for a little while. Surely she would bring him back home, right?

"I think they'll be alright," he said. "Hopefully Liffey will bring Titmouse home. I'm sure she doesn't want him tagging along with her all the time. But I'll go out and look around for him just in case; do you want to come with me? Maybe you can show me where you last saw him," Elwood added.
