Gyrfalcon's Keep [m]The More The Merrier, Right?

Haizel had a real knack for getting lost.

Sometimes far from the mesa and red sand of Akashingo and up to the coast.

Normally, it was a butterfly landing on pretty flowers; but it was winter, so all the butterflies were somewhere far off that he didn't have wings to follow. But flowers persisted in unexpected places and he was on the hunt to track them all down and put them in his chambers to cultivate over the winter season. He'd found Akashingo's soil needed hardy plants, and he stuck everything in there to see what would survive and grow for his wonderful queen and friends. 

And... oooo! Did his eyes deceive him, or were there... new friends about!?

There was!

Best day ever.

Hi! he barked, excitedly. I'm Haizel! Who are you?! Do you like flowers?! It didn't help that a few colorful petals fell from his shaking form.
