Northstar Vale come in from the rain

the trip had been silent. lonely along the way, even if it was not far. somewhere between mereo and epoch, he had shed the posture of a soldier. when he arrived to the borders of the vale it was with the face and posture of a friend.

when he tilted his head back, it was to call for @Tamar and arsenio. well aware that he likely would not recieve both of them upon the borders with their own children to tend to.

but he had become a patient man and he found no hardship in waiting.
