Northstar Vale Like a BAWSS!

Killdeer mentioned there were a lot of soldiers living in Epoch. Caracal thought his mom had mentioned they were all retired, though the point still stood. Anyway, he couldn’t really speak to it himself, so he only gave his pal a sympathetic look. It made sense to him that they might not necessarily want to move into a pack with so many ties to Mereo. Maybe a fresh start from scratch would be better.

Hell yeah! Caracal exclaimed at the mention of island living. We’ll find some coconuts, hollow ‘em out and stick ‘em on your legs—flotation devices! he joshed. If you two come by and decide to stick around, maybe Heda will even let us rename it Wheeling Hawk Isle.

All jokes aside, he ought to head back soon. But he was in no hurry to part ways with Killer. Caracal wanted more than just a few minutes’ chit-chat with his best buddy before they went back to their separate—but hopefully not forever—lives.

Hey, wanna walk with me a ways, maybe grab a bite to eat while we catch up some more? he invited, motioning vaguely northwestward.
