Emberwood command, option, escape

For @Peregrine (and if @Lasher wants to hop in, that's cool, too)!

The trio had set out to the north. Well, more like the northeast. In any case, the three of them had departed the plateau in search of a potential new home. Fox did not think they would find it on the first try, but she wanted to look around and see what the world had to offer outside of where she had already been. With Fox leading the way (per Peregrine's request), they traversed the mountains that hugged their current home, making their way to the other side. Once Fox had seen down into the valley, she immediately adjusted their route to go toward a bright red forest.

Peregrine and Lasher traveled with her, although their traveling made conversation sparse when it occurred. If anything, Fox was focused on their outcome: finding a home that they could all share together. They were making good time, and soon they entered the bright red and orange forest, the leaves changing in full force. It was, for lack of a better word, on fire. Fox blended right in, and she slowed once they came to a small creek. “Stop for a drink?” she suggested to her two traveling companions. She was also curious to see if they had anything to say about anything between the plateau and where they were now.

In the meantime, she lowered her head and lapped greedily at the water.
