Ghost Lion Crag And the rain

mm i am enjoying this thread but we could probably fade in the next two posts or so <3

 

Smokestep had mentioned Sandpiper upon showing up; he could recall mentioning her as he had asked for directions from the woman. Still, being approached by a stranger in the wood could come as a bit alarming to anyone who was unsuspecting. So, he did not quite understand the questioning expression that she had cast his way, but he supposed that Wraen would meet his salty sibling in just a short while. The two Cairn children had only split up for the last couple of miles, after all, and had every intention of meeting each other again.

When the green-eyed woman inquired about his sibling, or the sea urchin – he wasn't at all sure which one she had been referring to – he looked at her with a few genuine blinks of confusion. “Me sister? She's a wolf, lass, just like ye and meself,” he remarked with smirk and a wink. “I say she's a sea urchin because they're prickly lil nasty things that stick into ye if yer not careful in the water.” Perhaps that sort of a response would clear things up for her. He did talk an awful lot and always managed to confuse those involved or himself in that process.
