He supposed his wishes had been answered at last; the siren queen herself had allowed him to go to the mainland, away from the noisy island that plagued his mind and into the unknown he wished to uncover. The boy was young, still very much sporting a frame of youthful features, but inside was a very anxious young man, mature beyond his years.
But this wasn't some fancy vacation - no, he had been sent on a mission. He was to go to Moonspear, one of their allied packs, and ask for updates on any large scale events. He supposed it was important, which made him wonder why the siren queen had chosen him for the job. It wasn't like they hadn't any capable wolves among their ranks... Still, he saw it as an honor; an honor, however much anxiety that brought him.
He set off a day after the mission had been called, not bothering with goodbyes. He was much too preoccupied to worry about such silly things. He was to return here as soon as his job was done anyway. He wouldn't be gone forever. The boy wandered for a while, the sound of songbirds and critters more prevalent than on the island. The mainland sounded... greener. More alive.
