Hideaway Strath you were never meant to be a tragedy

Vein’s tail began to sway despite himself, as they dug into the rock, more and more of the wall crumbling beneath their paws and combined effort. He reached higher and broke away all he could so the the entrance they were carving would not collapse behind them. All to soon there was rubble at the paws but almost a smooth pathway deeper into the cave, this tunnel was not as volumouness as the chamber they were currently in and it was darker.

Vein stuck his head through the opened they had widened enough so that even he may past through it freely. He barked loudly, the sound reverberated off the walls, no creatures flew around

but hundreds of tiny lights further down the tunnel filtered off the wall some going deeper some coming up toward them. “Oh these are the Glow worms I told you about” Vein chuckled as one landed upon the tip of his nose. “Just don’t eat them, they are quite fearless.”

Vein led the way with his glow worm tipped nose, Almost a wolfish version of Rudolph. As he stepped into the tunnel intending to lead the way he splashed into water, which trickled through the center of the tunnels floor, the water was warm but not anymore then the pound in Gaia’s alter.

“Mind your steps it could he slippery” He rumbled as he moved deeper, the glow worms lifted of the walls and swirled about them as he passed by almost leading the way deeper.

He moved ahead oblivious to the fact if she followed or not. It took him a good two minutes to reach the end of the tunnel which opened into another chamber that was sweltering and this chamber  had a crystal clear spring of water “Aerin” He called out enjoying the way her name rolled off his tongue. Turning to look for her, his glow worm pal finally flying away from his nose which he licked reflexively.
