Stavanger Bay As the Tide Returns

heph had not lost the sweet talking, atka laughed at that.

❝too long, heph.❞ it was nice having her dear friend's name on her tongue again, she hoped to dispel the glassy eyes. ❝and very well actually, i feel i've softened him.❞

her speech faded into a laugh once more, her tail waving behind her with a considerable speed as heph pressed her head to snow. the one who she'd traveled with, hunted with, spent waking moments with was finally with her once more. heph was there with her fresh from the grief of atka's past. she moved into the greeting as she spoke, then continued.

❝we parted ways with the forsaken, but aludin is out and moving again, i know nothing of the others. we're with hljóðrfell now, not far from here at all.❞

enough of questions for herself, what had heph been doing all this time?

❝did you finally settle? finally saw the ocean hm?❞ she joked, a smile clear on her face.
