Jade Fern Grove a saint bernard sits at the top of the driveway

Polaris didn't seem to hold the same hope that he did, but he wouldn't let his own falter. His mom said that they were at Easthollow recently which means they had to have survived this rockslide! Even if there had been damage...she'd at least have some family. The woodland boy couldn't find any words to hopefully change her mind so...he stepped forward to bump his head against the dove's side. Polaris seemed content with changing the conversation so West wouldn't linger any longer.

Before the girl had a chance to finish another voice cut in, something he had a feeling was going to become a norm for them. This time it wasn't Clay though, instead, it was a silver girl, someone he didn't know but clearly Polaris did. At first, the woodland boy grew tense catching the tremble in her voice, but any fears about this stranger were quickly put to rest as she rushed to embrace the girl. Uhh...
