Northstar Vale I can shoot a shotgun, I can catch a fish

How the time flew! Phox felt like he barely knew Killdeer, although perhaps that wasn't so odd. A generational gap felt like eons, and so much had happened the year he was born. Phox hoped that this year would be different. He wanted to be more present for the his nieces, nephews, grandkids, and of course his own kids. Not just the new ones, either. He wanted to reconnect with them all. Several of his kids were far away now, but he was pretty sure Meerkat was still living on the coast, and he had Fennec right here. Not to mention Jack and Killdeer.

Especially with Leona's death, Phox felt all the more compelled to (re)connect with family. And with his own prospects of having kids looking slimmer and slimmer by the day, perhaps it was better to focus on what he had, rather than what might be.

What's he getting into these days? Phox asked, genuinely curious.
