The Sentinels Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?

Sorry for the wait, it's been a busy week! <3 Also that sounds good to me haha! :D

A strong name. Huh, he supposed so, though he hadn't really thought about it until now. His parents had given them each a strong name, hadn't they? Judah. Malakai. Even Dinah. The strength of their names hadn't made Sweetharbour any stronger, hadn't changed much, in the end - but they did remind him of where he was from. Who he was. Who had loved him. Who still did.

Thanks, was all he said, and he shimmied one end of the tree just under the branch draped across Raindrop's back.

His eyes lit up - sister packs! - but the time for chatter had passed, and as much as he wanted to ask her right now if Raindrop knew Towhee, if she had ever been to Moonspear, if she could show him the way, they both had to focus.

Hold the thought, he said, to let her know they weren't quite done with this conversation yet, I'm ready to lift. On the count of three, I'll put my whole weight on the log and when you feel the branch ease off you - when, and not if, - you get outta there, fast as you can, got it? When he heard her okay, he would sound the countdown, One - paws ready, - two - oh Adonai, let this work, - three!

And he pushed down on the log with all his might.
