Dragoncrest Cliffs Cordierite

Vibrations that now came with a second sensation—sound—shook Sequoia's body as her mother spoke. Her head screwed one way, then the other as her ears tried to pinpoint where the sound was coming from. She couldn't quite tell, but that would come with practice. As a puppy, most of her life was practicing skills she wasn't very good at yet (aside from eating... she was very good at that).

Her grip slipped, and off she slid to the ground, grunting as she did so. The "fall," if it could even be called that, had been a slow one, and she had landed softly on the earth. Undeterred, she attempted another round of climbing up her mother's side, curious to see what was on the other side.
