Sun Mote Copse My blue eyes never looked so green

Being vague about which Blackthorns are staying in RH/coming to FB, since this thread isn't done yet, and this is set sometime after Rannoch and Liffey leave RH! But here comes Finwood!

When it finally came time for Elwood and @Finley to leave the plateau, they did so with little fanfare. They had already spoken with their children, and they reminded themselves that they weren't going far at all -- so big goodbyes were unnecessary. It was simple, really; all they had to do was walk away.

And so they did, with the early morning sun peeking through the snow clouds and warming their backs ever so slightly. They took their time, following a path that would likely become familiar as they made trips back to visit their remaining family at the plateau. When they reached Wildfire's borders a few hours later, a soft, steady snow was falling, welcoming them to their new home.

Elwood bumped Finley's shoulder affectionately with his own, then raised his voice to call for @Wildfire and @Eljay specifically, although he would be happy to see the faces of their other new packmates, too.
