The homestretch of their journey was upon them, and Rannoch frequently glanced in Wisteria's direction with an expression of disbelief. Despite her feeble condition, she was alive, and that was what mattered most to him. Still, he couldn't help but wonder if this was all a fabrication of his depleted cognizance, hence the regular check-ins with his daughter.

Despite everything, namely his exhaustion, Rannoch managed to gallop up the gently sloping hill that lead to the summit of the tableland. When he made it to the top, Rannoch gently placed Aengus at his paws and turned to watch as the rest of his family followed him; he was so proud of each of them for what they had accomplished.

"Should we let them know we're here?" Rannoch prompted excitedly once the family had assembled at the borders; it was late, but he was sure that Raven, Quixote, and the rest of the Redhawks would be relieved to know that they had arrived.
