Swiftcurrent Creek one-way ticket to the sun

No problem on both counts! :) Let's have another thread when Gali gets back!

Kaskara wasn't sure what was wrong with Galileo, but she hoped that he would be alright. He had been a member as long as she had, if not longer, and she didn't want him to leave for any preventable reason. If there was anything she could do to make his life easier, she would. She respected him not only as a member of the creek but also because he was her elder by two years and had seen more of the world than she could have ever dreamed.

She nodded with a smile. "Have a safe trip, Galileo. I'll see you when you get back." Kaskara paused at the border and watched him continue on. She stood there for a long time until he was no longer visible and finally turned around to find Scimitar, to tell him of their member's intentions. Though she didn't know him well, he would make a good counselor, and she wished Scimitar would utilize his skills more.
