Stone Circle out there

tags for reference :)

A lot of Nikai's time was spent tending to @Keoni and @Valette — he was there for them, making sure that they were doing well enough and were treating themselves well. In the process though, Nikai was trampling all over his own well-being and he found it difficult to keep up. There was a growing desire to be out there and adventure through the world in his mind, a wanderlust that made his paws itch and willed himself to get going.

But loyalty kept him close to home and so he stayed here, because he thought it was what was expected of him, because he thought it was what his family needed, because of everybody else's feelings but his own. In need if a breather Nikai decided to go for a patrol along Easthollow's borders and he sighed wistfully while he stared off into the fields as he trotted along at a leisurely pace, his heart not fully in the patrol.
