Redhawk Caldera now what

Towhee was quick to reply with a sharp tongue, or so it felt to Eljay — he didn't mean that he should return right now, he just.. thought they should know that he was gone, and why. He didn't want them to think he'd just ran away; he had only left to help in the war, and then this had happened. It wasn't like he'd wanted to leave. "I didn't mean I should go back, I just meant — I thought — What if they think I just left without a word? What if Wiffle is worried?" He frowned pensively, not wanting Wildfire to worry or the Heda to get mad at him, though he also feared that it might be too late already.

Towhee had also mentioned that he needed to do some things for her. Eljay glanced briefly at daddy before turning back to his Alpha. He bobbed his head in a nod and waited to hear what she had to say, a tentative expression on his face as he tried to settle into the conversation and life back at the Caldera.
