Blackbeak Bluff when every thursday

The switch to turn is emotions off had appeared suddenly and Merlin had not yet mastered to control it. For the time being he felt nothing and it simply meant one less thing for him to worry about. It was as if for the first time in months he had been able to sort out some of the messy table-top his mind by dumping a pile of documents in a shredder and not looking back. This welcome change was liberating the longer time he spent with it. It made him wonder, if the other aspects of his broken mind were also just as easy to control. He had been able to shut down the buzz of thoughts by ignoring them, but then they would well up somewhere else and flood him as a tsunami at the least appropriate moment. Leading to headaches making him miss a day or two. 

But it was an idea worth experimenting with and wasn't it best to do it in solitude, away from people? He therefore slunk away from Sappique to enjoy grass and ground beneath his feet. He was not a sea-wolf at heart. Plains were a chess-board he felt most comfortable treading at. There in the vast open space it was easy to let all thoughts come through his mind and then be taken away by the winds, until he could stand there with his eyes closed and feel as light and careless as the green grass-stalks there. One day he would become grass too. Had someone told him this before? Because this thought had a voice and it had not been his own.

Merlin did not allow himself to dwell on it too much though. He broke out of the trance and continued his nightly walk, until he found tracks of a packmate and soon saw the person itself perched on a cliff's edge in the distance and looking up at the stars or somewhere in the distance. It was hard to tell from, where he was standing. He ventured closer driven by slight curiousity, but more because of a years-old reflex, a bond that ties packmates together. He dipped his head politley in a silent greeting to the stranger and then sat down a little distance away to follow the other's gaze with his own teal eyes in order to see, what was so interesting up there.
