Redhawk Caldera It's a good day in the sun

She did well the second time around!! If that was anything to go by, she was a fast learner... and Maia wondered, for the thousandth time, how frightened her parents must be. Imagine, missing things like this? Actually, she needed to imagine a little less, or she was going to get randomly emotional here.

Luckily the questions were an adorable distraction. Well, an 'old forest' is one kind of like we have next door. But the trees are wayyyy bigger they say, and ancient, and fairies live among them. That's how the trees get to be so old and still are so healthy. Was it faeries or something else, actually? There were so many stories of enchanted forests that honestly, it probably didn't matter.

And a king is a wolf who leads all the other wolves in the forest. He was supposedly very strong and very wise. Which makes sense, if so many listened to him. One of Maia's favorite things about children this age was that she never knew where a story, or a conversation, was going to go. This was definitely no exception.
