Arrow Lake Funny how we keep meetin like this

When he had lowered his head to drink, he had not expected to be approached. What was even less expected was for the voice to be familiar to him. Even so he startled and choked on the water, coughing loudly as he lifted his head and stared at her. Once he could breathe he gave a half hearted smile "No. But I Sorta wish I could turn into a bird and fly away" he said not entirely joking. Before she could comment on his somewhat depressing tone he flashed her a forced grin "And I'm sure I'd better use to you not dead. Jeez, you scared me" he said and wagged his tail. She looked the same as when they'd last met, even if just a bit older.  He probably looked about the same too. He mused on how funny it was that they kept running into one another, wondering if it was something like fate that made it happen.  "So Wraen, How can I help you?" he asked in a friendly voice.
