It’s been a few days now. Basil was not content to sit still while there was still a big new world to explore and maybe find clues how far away he is from home and if there is a way to return or not. It was horrible, not knowing the future. Will he have to stay here? In this unknown land or might there be a way back home? So Basil decided to not settle down for now, he had so much to see and people to meet. Maybe……if it shows that he will never return to his family, he might be able to create a new family here. But for now, exploring it is.
His journey finally managed to lead him to another river that was fading into the ocean, the smell of the ocean on the wind guiding his paws further down. If this is really a big ocean in front of him and not just a large lake, his journey would hit a dead end. Basil wasn’t a fish so swimming for a long time was unimaginable. If this was a dead end, the young male would have to turn around and head back inland. He had been following a large mountain range when he first arrived at this unknown land. Maybe he could try crossing it or just climb it and get a high vantage point. But that was an idea for another time.
His paws carried him towards the river where dirt and grass slowly meet sand. It’s been a while since he last drank something. At least he wasn’t hungry this time. With a grateful sigh he dipped his head towards the river and started drinking. At least it was still drinkable water and not saltwater. The fox colored male stopped drinking midway. He suddenly smelled wolves; the breeze carried their scent towards him. It was a whole group but it did not smell like a pack. His gaze drifted downstream and then he saw them. It must have been around 9 wolves. Basil wondered what they were doing here.
His curiosity was piqued. What could a group of wolves be searching for here? They looked like they were on their own journey. Maybe Basil could join them? If they were really traveling then at least he wouldn’t constantly be alone. Loneliness was a shitty friend. Even though he wanted to get closer to them, he did not know them. So Basil was cautious. If they weren’t friendly they might rip him apart. Basil might be fast but even he could probably not avoid a whole group of wolves hunting him. So for now, he would watch and maybe follow them from a distance.
