Dragoncrest Cliffs party down with vigor and candor

@Haunt if you have the time?

val had not been in the cliffs long before he was exploring it. to the rest of his family, the novelty of new home may have worn off -- but val was very much fascinated by the daunting rises of cliff, the tunnels and their ancient halls, and the sundry hidden enclaves that dragoncrest boasted.

he had found one such discovery -- the widening mouth of a conical tunnel which bore straight through the cliff's side. somewhere deep in the tunnel, val could hear the sea breathing. perhaps this was another outlet to a secret beach, or one of the many intricate tunnels which made dragoncrest and ankyra's backbone.

he would explore its end later. for now, val was fascinated by the way his voice carried down the gradually descending cavern, bouncing back at him like an ethereal ghost. "ooooooo!" val sang into the depths, ears pricked with delight as a rebounding ooOOoo! came back to him.

after several series of yips, barks, and howls (all of which were "returned to sender" at max distortion), val parked at the mouth, puffed up his chest, and in his deepest voice yodeled "RABBIT GUTS!" at the top of his lungs.
