I took a little journey to the unknown

far too used to being forced awake at the crack of dawn, he'd woken some time ago, but hadn't yet been ready to put his limbs back to work.

the sound of the other's voice rouses him further though.

“unfortunately,” he grumbles, voice cracking a bit more than usual.

while unsure how to feel at the other's attempt at comforting words, he doesn't much linger on the thought.

rising steadily to his feet, he follows suit in a much needed stretch, popping each shoulder with a grunt.

“the view is nice this early,” he hums, taking a step or two forward, chin rising to meet the soft whip of air that flies by.

Kyo didn't come back last night. Not that she was trying to breathe down his neck, but it was something she noted as she left that morning. She could look for him, but the key was huge, and it's not like he couldn't handle himself, so she decided to make better use of her time. Exploring. As they have been doing so often the past few days. Admittedly, the whole 'why not rebuild your home' thing started as a time waster while she had company. Nothing more than an idea to toy with, but the more they worked together, the more she believed it might just work.

Kyo had found the dojo behind the falls, and the outlook they opened up to each other on worked great for future Acolytes to earn their name. The pieces were falling into place; all they needed now were members. Easier said than done, really. Maybe if they had been a normal pack with a normal way of life, it would be simple, but the Order had always been secretive. Outsiders were rarely taken in...and now she was faced with recruiting precultured wolves or a collection of children to preach the Honiyah to and ensure they actually followed it. A game of trust really, but it wasn't like she had much to lose. The old order was long in the past, and she had lost track of where Kaida even was. If this blew up in her face, at the very least, it wouldn't go back to bite her past.

The dragon had wandered back to the shore with a destination in mind. A tree along the coast had originally caught her eye, standing alone in solitude with sprawling branches despite being housed between stone and sand. However, movement from the corner of her eye would stop her before she even got close. Kyo she recognized almost immediately (too many days staring at the back of that thick head), but the other was equally bearish and— looked... a bit like Shuji. The scents suggested it wasn't, and he was missing the scar across his brow. A wave of disappointment was shoved down before Kei chuffed to draw Kyo's attention. “You ditchin' me already?”

feet near. then a smaller shadow. a woman? another inhabitant of the key, he guessed.

as the man bid, he stood in wait at the spot he'd placed himself. but he didn't look further to the horizon, instead taking in the scene before him. the words they spoke were inaudible, but he watched anyway. wary.

Kei quirked a brow as Kyo left his company, only to recoil as he quickly smothered her with his muzzle. She would have shoved him away, cursed him out, something if she hadn't caught the words trailing her ear as he did so. Sneaky bastard. When the message was seemingly delivered, she'd finally shove him away with a firm paw to the chest, then turn her eyes to the man who looked a little too close to her cousin to allow her stomach to settle. “Hey, you gotta name?” Not that she didn't trust Kyo's judgement. Frankly, she didn't, but not because he was untrustworthy. These rules they abided by were still new to him, but he had done good, seemingly keeping this man in the dark.
