Sea Lion Shores 'Cause they know who is righteous, what is bold, so I'm told

Acheron watched wide eyed for a few seconds as Tuvaq boldly approached the strange creatures. But he didn't remain behind for very long, if only just to make sure nothing happened to his friend. 

The creatures didn't seem too concerned about them being there, which was kind of odd, but that didn't stop Acheron from internally fretting about their proximity. These were big animals; what if they suddenly changed their minds about how close they were? It could easily get bad for them quickly. One of them made a loud, grunting noise in the distance, making the freckled boy jump and whip he focus in that direction. But nothing happened, whichever creature had issued the sound hadn't done it again or moved from what he could tell. 

He answered Tuvaq's question with a wary look. That doesn't seem like a very good idea. he pointed out. He hoped his friend would listen and not wander any closer, because then Acheron would have to go with him to make sure he didn't get hurt.
