Noctisardor Bypass Caboose, I don't think anybody likes you

Help was much appreciated, and he wagged his tail. He hadn't though too much as to why Arbiter would find a den, he wasn't the sort to ask questions, so he just accepted it as a thing his mother needed to have, the end. Yeah, but they're pretty bossy I guess. It's better when they're bugging each other.  He took a few steps after Gannet, then came to a screeching halt, spun around, and headed back to get his rock. It wasn't far, just maybe a little silly that he had to bring it with him. A few inches down, there it was, and he bounded back over and up the slope, looking ahead for a good shadow that might be a target -- there had been a couple, but how many were optical illusion kind of things? There was also the fact that him carrying the dang rock meant he wouldn't speak particularly clearly but he hadn't thought that far ahead.
