There was silence at first, and then it seemed like someone was calling his name over and over and over again, only, eerie-like and disembodied, unlike the first shout that had met him from up above. Turmeric shivered, even though he recognized the voice which had called to him first.
"Y-yeah, o-okay!" he tried to sound cool, but his voice cracked. Well enough, anyway. He'd probably called up too late for his brother to hear him. As he waited, he turned his ears to try and catch the voice that had bounced around the canyon, but the only voice he heard was Thyme.
"I don't think anyone with ears could have missed that," Turmeric said with an anxious laugh. "D'you - " he cleared his throat and hushed his voice with a conspiratorial, and totally honest, glance around the canyon walls, "d'you think the rocks were talking?" He hoped not. That wasn't exactly the kind of newness Turmeric was hoping to find in these new lands.
