Broken Antler Fen The person I most medium suspect.

Even though he should've known, when Lilitu said he should be careful for the ice, Eljay stopped briefly and looked down. Right, thanks, Eljay called back out to Lilitu, and he then headed over. By the time he reached her, she asked him to walk with him, and he nodded, easily joining by her side as she set off.

To his surprise (even though he shouldn't have been) Lilitu asked him to get to know him. Eljay felt much the same about Lilitu, considering she was Ibis' child and a part of the Brecheliant family. He wasn't sure how she felt about him taking over the Auspex role, someone that she barely knew, but if she had any negative feelings about it, she certainly wasn't showing them.

Actually, it seemed that Lilitu wanting to get to know him was mostly about the fact that he was with Maia, which in a way was a relief. He didn't have to live up to potentially impossibly high standards of a leader slash mother figure in Lilitu's mind, at least. She seemed nice enough, which made Eljay relax a little. I'm from Redhawk Caldera, Eljay said, and he instantly thought of the move they might make back there. Uh, I lived there for a few years. I lived at the coast for maybe half a year before coming back to the Caldera. Then we had to move because of — Food? Blackfeather Woods wolves? He thought the latter, but he didn't remember exactly. — It wasn't safe, and I ended up moving to the Copse, in uhm, the hinterlands. To the west of here. Then moved back to Redhawk Caldera with that pack, and well, I left it to join Brecheliant because Maia lives here. It wasn't a lot about himself, really, Eljay realised when he finished. Just where he lived. Which was mostly just Redhawk Caldera to some or other degree. Eljay seemed thoughtful for a moment, as he nervously tried to think about facts about himself before he added: I'm a caretaker, I uh — I'm a puppysitter, and midwife, and medic. Though he considered himself mostly the two former, still, as medic was the last of those trades that he picked up.
