Lost Creek Hollow Shake it off, let's go!

terance arrived (possibly) just in the nick of time. he could hear sarah's harsh response just as he came nearer, feeling a little anxious. zues, who was at the borders right now? pike had accompanied him, the boy was turning out to be quite the ambitious sort despite his age... good, too, terance was glad to have a child (or two) interested in the same things he was. he stood tall, stiff, but his expression was not cold. it was hard for terance to look small anyhow. he stood before the man, tail arced above his back. beside him, his son did the same thing... though it was a less impressive display.

he reached to nudge his sister gently, giving her an appreciative nod, before looking back at the stranger. terance, he said with a single nod of his head, leader of his hollow. pike, beside him, gave a low (but high pitched) growl. not an angry one, but like he was so excited he could barely contain himself. though he had poised himself pretty well, his tail was beginning to wag furiously at his hocked. terance himself stifled a smile at the site. 

and this is my son, pike, he added, to which the boy gave a wide grin, what brings you to our borders? of course, this would require the man to repeat himself.
