All Welcome 
@Val if you still wanted Louis to meet up he's made it to the coast now :3

The ocean had proven more difficult to find than Louis at first expected. Mountains blocked the strong winds that would have lent him scent of salt on the air sooner, and deep woods were not so easy to travel as the open plains. He'd done it, though, and now made his way along the coast in a state of perpetual awe.

At midday the light shone so bright off the expanse - more water than he'd ever seen! - that Louis could barely look at it. Under moonlight, it was so mystical he understood why many songs had been sung about the sea.

He danced with the waves and stuck his nose inadvisably into tide-pools, where clams squirted at him and crabs quickly became a nemesis. Great fish leapt from deeper waters, and if Louis could think of any practical way to catch such large prey he might have made the swim out to try his luck. Everything was strange and new and piqued his curiosity.

Right now, he was trying to dig a hole in the sand at the start of the beach, to see how deep he had to go to reach water. He wondered whether it would be salty, like the ocean nearby. A couple of feet down, he was already covered in sand himself. And flinging excessive quantities of it off behind him, to the general irritation of the seagulls who had no doubt expected a predator to mean scavenge for them.
