Phoenix Maplewood locked in your own home

The rains kept coming and coming, and it made the bypass feel even smaller than usual. Kaertok realized he hadn't stepped foot outside their claim since the children were born, and that likely had something to do with the stifling sensation he'd been feeling. So, with a quick word to Arbiter to let her know that he'd be back in the next couple of days, Kaertok headed north toward the forest that lay between Legion and Whitebark Stream. The latter had been quiet ever since they had moved in, but he could not deny that he was curious about whether they would stay that way. Were they still friendly?

He wasn't too far from their border, but he also wasn't particularly keen on riling them up by being all up on them. Instead, he made his way through the wood, noting the newly-downed branches that littered the place. The sky had not stopped raining since it had started over two weeks ago now, and Kaertok noticed the lake which took up a large part of Legion's claim was growing larger. Not to worry, though, there were plenty of rivers that the lake would feed, and the bypass would be safe.
