Ocean's Breath Plateau the impious soul screams

the comment about anti having been a fish out of water brought a smile to his slender muzzle, crinkling it beneath his eyes. the statement was truer than that sun-cloaked male could ever understand. the volgra had never imagined himself to have found such a vastly different place from his birth. the idea that there existed a group of individuals who sought only to wander was baffling to the desert wolf. he could never understand why it was needed when there was so much to witness in just the stretch of a few miles. these were all questions he could not ask – questions that remained locked within his mind and only bothered him on rare occasions. it might have been best that others were left as mysteries to anti. he preferred the company of others more and more the less that he knew of their personal matters.
 
the large brute proceeded to ask further questions of anti, about his intentions to remain or to move through those lands. the first question that was asked – are you wandering? – received an immediate nod before the second question could follow. the second was more difficult for him to process and respond to. anti furrowed his brow so that it knit above his eyes. he frowned thoughtfully, bobbing his head from left to right in a slow motion that was intended to show how he wasn’t sure. then, the lean wolf shrugged his shoulders. all of that was up to anu. it was not for anti to decide how long they would remain there.
 
pointing his muzzle at the other man, anti tilted his head to the side curiously, as though he were returning the inquiries back to the towering brute.
