Neverwinter Forest Bullet train to Iowa.

Dwin raised no complaints about their destination, so Towhee assumed a slightly brisker pace. Long before they arrived poolside, she could smell the telltale sulfur. The ground grew ever mistier as clouds of steam swirled around their heels. The humidity and temperature rose significantly.

She found a bath which appealed to her particularly and stopped beside it, dipping a paw into the bubbling water. It was quite hot, so they’d probably want to ease into it, lest they scald themselves. Towhee glanced at her younger companion, cautioning her with a look.

I asked you first, she belatedly teased, orange eyes dropping to the water. I haven’t landed anywhere in particular. I’m still making the rounds, though I’m considering parking somewhere for the winter. I haven’t decided where yet.

Now she looked up at Dwin again, eyes sparkling as she demanded, Now you. What have you been up to? even as she began easing her forelegs into the steaming spring.
