Heron Lake Plateau Fantastic beasts and where to find them.

For the most part, Phox had become Camilla’s shadow since she had arrived. Now that days had passed without any sign of her pursuers, he was willing to ease up a bit and give her (and himself) some more room. He had still been coming home to bed with Towhee each night, although he made sure to find Camilla a nice place to sleep that was not far at all from where he was. Phox did not know why he had such an attachment to her, but he did. Perhaps he was trying to reconnect with the feeling he’d had with Towhee so long ago, but they clearly lacked now. It had been tarnished when he had left, and he wasn’t sure they would ever be the same again.

Once he was certain that Camilla was safe for the night, he dragged himself away from her and toward Towhee. Their relationship seemed to slowly be getting better, he thought, and he felt more confident and less... pathetic lately. Niamh’s confidence in him had certainly helped. She was sitting outside when he arrived, and he resisted the temptation to woof at her, knowing it would do no good. Instead, he swept around so he approached her from a diagonal so she would more easily see him.

-How’s leader life treating you?- he asked, head tilting to one side. Raven had stepped down, and it had seemed only natural for Towhee to step back up. He still wasn’t sure why she had stepped down in the first place, but he figured he would be filled in on that story whenever she felt like sharing it.
