Ocean's Breath Plateau sunny days that i thought would never end

aditya and kitimat, side by side, went searching for @Katmai this morning. neither of them had been able to sleep, and so, they had hatched a plan to snag the youth and go for an adventure around the plateau.

dadaji, why were they gone so long? kitimat asked him.

it took a while for him to formulate the answer, but by the time they had reached where katmai was sleeping soundly, curled up near dutch and valiant, he perhaps had something to suffice.

sometimes wolves go away for a while, adi murmured. he crept forward, nudging the other boy gently to rouse him. they still love us all the same.

he could not guess as to why they had been away so long—but they were back, and that was what mattered.
