Whitebark Stream You can't hide from the future.

One for @Salvatore, maybe? Tagging Dawn for reference.  :)

Following he and Minnow's return from the spires to the West, Artyom took advantage of the opportunity to rest. In the darkness he located the densite that he and shared with @Dawn and slipped carefully within, wrapping himself around her with an affectionate croon. The reunion was mostly wordless and, with his eyes heavy, the exhausted ranger allowed his mate's warmth to lull him into what felt like long-awaited slumber. 

Significantly fresher by the morning that followed, and he was disappointed to find that Dawn had ventured on ahead of him - allowing him to sleep long into the morning, perhaps. Reiko's claim was fresh on his mind and, despite a desire to question the newest recruits about what he'd been told, Artyom knew it would do him no good to demand answers without preparation. No, he would discuss it with Dawn first, and make a decision together.

In the meantime, he sought to reach out to Sal. Artyom had maintained a distance from him since the sterling wolf had asked advice of him, allowing his comrade to make amends with his companion in his own time. It'd been several weeks since then and, concerned, the roamed the woods in search of fresh evidence that Salvatore had not fled.
