Everywhere hung heavy with humidity and Amekaze had to wonder if this was the mountain and the sea's influence at work here to help form this piece of paradise. It was a region of high humidity, and she knew the ocean and the mountains, by their sheer size and power, were bound to cause geography around them to alter. Still, she was learning, and seeing places like these in greater depth was sure to only further her knowledge.
And, in doing so, she was realizing why Xi'nuata had selected here as her home. A beautiful place befitting a wolf such as herself, Amekaze missed her still whenever the most subtle traces of her scent came to her nose. They were all but gone, though.
Her advance continued deeper into the heart of the Vale as the creek did the same. At a point, she opted to stray from it for a while, just to see what she may find. She was absorbed in the scenery, and its features, until the scent of something very real alerted her focus, one much more glaring than the plants and prey trails. A wolf. First she suspected it would be a Creek wolf, but a deeper breath a second later said no, he was not of Fox's band so her wild hackles remained stilled.
In fact he smelled of the sea, which was naturally interesting to her; she had not seen the sea herself in several weeks now. He was a reminder of the shores already.
She slowed curiously to watch him, sought to meet his eyes, then sprung forward in a smooth leap that urged into a canter within a stride. Ame wanted to see if he was inquisitive enough to follow her as she angled back towards the waterway's scent. There was still much to learn.
