Sun Mote Copse at the end of the day

Eljay smiled as Phox agreed that they would go and visit the Frosthawks. He'd never really dared go himself, and he'd never considered asking someone else to take him either as he felt it was a huge thing to ask, so he was glad that Phox had asked him. Eljay hadn't seen anyone for such a long time. As a matter of fact, he hadn't seen Raven and her family since they'd left the valley. I can't wait to see them, Eljay said with a wag of his tail, thinking in particular of Raven and Owen. Already he was giddy, even though he'd have to be patient for a bit longer until he could see them. He had not seen them for so long though; it was worth any wait, and Eljay was a patient man.

Phox then excused himself, saying he'd retrace the border to look for Alyx and Niamh. The smile vanished off Eljay's face and he nodded solemnly. Good luck, he offered with a nod in response to Phox' message.
