Redhawk Caldera two years past

we can thread this out :)

In his emotional blur Eljay didn't even notice that anyone was following him at all. He just kept trotting on and didn't halt until he reached Lake Rodney. He stood at the same place he had when he'd seen Sebastian and the wounded wolf that other day. He wondered if that wolf had ever recovered, where they were now.

Mindlessly Eljay took a few quick sips from the water before he turned northwards, absent-mindedly following the lake. All he could focus on was what was right ahead of him — he didn't want to think too much, couldn't dwindle on Redhawk Caldera's borders that were calling for him, alluring him with the thought of safety and mommy-cuddles and love and safety. All he could look at and think about was the road ahead to stop himself from having a panic attack.
