Redsand Canyon Dusty roads ain't made for walking

Lane joined his call after a moment, and he realized how much he liked the way their voices mixed and spread across the canyon in front of them. 

A man answered and introduced himself as the imperator of Mereo. Tuulu nodded in response as Lane offered their names and told the man why they needed passage through the mountains. She said they had news from the valley, and then it was his turn to speak.

A pack called Ursus raided our allies, Rivenwood. Their leader, Mahler, and a few other packmates were injured in the fight and two of their pups, Indra and Abel, were taken. His expression was grim. We checked on them on our way to the mountains. It seems their leader has abandoned them and the ones who are left are planning something against Ursus.

He was quiet then, feeling as though he informed the imperator of the important points of the situation.
