Big Salmon Lake Someone Said They Left Together

Etephyr's words brought his eyes to watch her with a careful glint to them. He had truly only known this she wolf for one night, but he had no reason to suspect that she might be trying to deceive him. Perhaps this could all be a big mistake to throw atop the pile of mistakes he had already made in his life time, but Omnium felt a shred of optimism in their meeting of chance. A thin one, but if it was enough to change the day in and day out isolation of travel, he felt he should seize it in the moment. His generally motionless tail gave way to a little thump on the ground as Etephyr confirmed she, too, would like to dig deeper still. A risk he was willing to take.

Omnium mulled over her words thoughtfully and moved to stand on the highest area on the embankment beside the lake. The mountain range seemingly surrounded them, and it had become a familiar friend during his recent travels. The first connection he felt when leaving his homelands. Perhaps Etephyr had a point. The paths of wolves crossed constantly here, and he wished for a calm area to call home. He looked to her black and white figure over his shoulder, searching for her eyes. Where would you recommend we go? I have been to the coast, and I know it's a bit crowded there as well. Perhaps East or West would be better suited for us? We. An odd sentiment.

Where all have you traveled in these lands? Omnium inquired curiously as he meandered back down the bank once again to near her. He lightly brushed his tail on her shoulder as he bypassed her. A small sign of affection and companionship. An unspoken invitation for touch in future should she want to reciprocate at some point that he hoped was well received. Omnium now looked out over the lake to the Eastern mountains in thought. He had never put more thought into his travel in the Teekon Wilds other than South.
