When Rannoch wasn't marking the outermost boundaries of the territory or interacting with his packmates, the Alpha often found himself seeking the rocky sides of the Vale. It was in this search that Rannoch attempted to uphold a promise he had made to Liffey quite some time ago and, given Rannoch's persistent nature, he would not stop searching until he found her a perfect perch. Rannoch knew how important stargazing was to her and he would make sure that she had the perfect spot for her to partake in her trade. 

He found her perfect place by chance one sunny afternoon, spending time in the willows that reminded him so much of her. The Alpha had sought these rocky walls previously, but, for whatever reason, the ledge had gone unnoticed the first time. After some exploration, and quite some time of figuring out the best route to carry them to the spot, Rannoch deducted that this ledge was going to be hers. It comfortably sat two, and though it was positioned just over the treetops, it's view was not obscured by the pale petals.

Rannoch kept the ridge a secret as he waited for a day with clear skies. He needed it all be perfect for her, as he wanted it to come as a complete surprise. When the day came, and gentle patches of peach were starting to show in the aging sky, Rannoch took a rabbit he had killed earlier in the day to the willows and settled right before the treeline. Pastel petals littered the ground around him and with the abundance of them, Rannoch gathered a pile at his paws so that he could rest the corpse on a bed of willows. Doing his best to keep his nerves calmed, Rannoch eventually sat knowing there was not much more he could do to prepare himself for this moment. So with this thought in mind, and his head thudding within the depths of his breast, Rannoch tipped his head back and called for Liffey, urging her to come and meet him at the willows as soon as she could.
a crime so old as the sky and bone
he came untied, solid as a stone
all is almost lost and it starts to show
