Firestone Hot Springs the tidal wave breaks

@Essie

Mountains are conquered, yet the dark red male circles back to where he once was, only northbound now.

His wanderings aimless, simply attempting to get distance between what haunts him in the south. By now, he could, in theory, count himself safe.

Yet he feels a set of eyes upon his back. The motion dismissed previously as merely paranoia, but it does not go away. Each step taken ruffles his fur further.

You are not fooling anyone, he hisses under his breath, snapping his head over his shoulder with teeth on full display. Show yourself!
