Broken Antler Fen Break the rules

A sense of trepidation kept Wildfire at home for close to a week before she decided to venture out again. She was on higher alert than usual as she crossed over the borders, especially because she was headed south. She saw no sign of Rig as she roamed past Nocturne Summit but she didn't really start to relax until she reached the stream that fed into Lake Rodney to the east. She turned to follow the waterway to the lake shore, amber eyes squinting at the caldera in the distance. Surely Fox had given birth by now, yet it was still too early to visit them. Wildfire deliberated, then decided she would give it another month or two before she went knocking again.

Instead, she forded a shallow part of the stream and then began to lope across the open plains. There was an oasis up ahead, one she had visited a time or two in the past. But as she approached now, intending to reacquaint with the fen, something gave her pause. There were scent markers on the breeze. Wildfire slowed, eyes widening slightly when she realized the strongest scent of all was familiar. She hadn't seen @Sebastian in what felt like forever. Had he found himself a girl and settled down here?

I tagged for visibility but anyone's welcome. :)
