Larksong Grotto Counting Stars

With the Seer fulfilling the will of Raas beyond the borders of the grotto, life for Reek became pretty quiet -- not that he was complaining about the silence. It was nice to have some peace for once, especially after falling apart at the seams as Reek had. He supposed he had Raas to thank for that. The Daystar had brought Reek emotional peace in exchange for his devotion. His pain, it was wiped clean. The alpha male of the grotto had been made new.

He took to the lake to wash himself, but his bath was inturrupted by a summons. Still sopping wet, Reek withdrew from the lake and set his course toward the source of the howl. He recognized that the voice belonged to Aspen, and while her howl carried no urgency in its tone, Reek wanted to be sure that nothing was amiss on his borders.

"Everything alright?" Asked the drowned rat as he approached.
