Firefly Glen all these years you tried to kill me, boy you ain't made a dent

on the border of NWF! @Grezig

down through the tall faces of stern rock, down through ridge of gneiss and through tumble-rock cairns. arcturus looked behind him once, and moonspear's grim presence impaled the sky - its shoulders white with a cape of blinding snow.

he continued down, down, down. around him boulders and shattered granite sat like the discarded remnants of a giant's broken crown. he felt tiny as he flitted through a graveyard of andesite, a tiny shadow moving among the cold faces of the mountain's stony refuse.

down until the ground leveled out, and a wasteland of white snow met him. in the distance obscured by winter fog a forest loitered, its formless shape obscured by moving mist.

arcturus made for it, paws plunging through a layer of thin snow as he went. yami, yami, yami the boy thought - where was she, where had she gone, why weren't his parents more concerned? she had been gone nearly a month now and he still missed her.

with his eyes set determinedly on the forest, arcturus covered good ground.
