Firefly Glen where what's to be, they say will be

for my note, i'm backdating before recent bigger/fight-y threads for too many reasons i don't want to vague about. so probably like 3/17. tags for refs <3

Recent news had tensions rising, patrols increasing, and Moonspear abuzz. Spring was likely going to continue to be eventful, as it seemed like the pack hit the ground running well enough after wintertime turned. Now, it was up to them to keep the momentum alive, and honed into something good for all of their sake.

So while he had stayed busy on the guard, which soothed him off an anxious edge after talking through some of it all with Hydra, and given much to think about with that. Plus, he had needed some time to pass, to decompress, and figure some matters out. Most of all, he had stayed close to their elevations, letting the others range below and beyond until today when he rallied the young @Antares and @Vega for a patrol of the Glen. He was especially careful of a watchful eye on them, but they were well trained by now, so spelled out the easy rules of no nonsense out here in light of their brother's attack--plus maybe if they were lucky, vengeance might be theirs if their ranging really paid off like that--not that they needed any help motivating.

Together they canvassed the area for all signs, heading northward through the Glen as the late morning turned to a partly cloudy afternoon. He was just glad not to see rain, and any peek of sun was good for him. They were left to continue uninterrupted, covering a few popular thoroughfares as well as a few more remote stretches. 

He hadn't forgotten about @Clover's call that he had not answered before, even if time had passed and very well, she had moved on well beyond the reach of this valley by now. He didn't know anymore, but he felt about it still, distantly--since he had refused to answer at all with Hydra's warnings (and comparisons) fresh in his ears then. But, now that it had passed, it was somewhere in the back of his thoughts as he scanned the horizon where the Glen began to fade off to beyond.
