Soon enough he was bored again with that, and he sought something new. If he couldn't stop tasting the bug, he would distract himself enough to forget it, and so, once more, the boy wandered off. He marveled at the world, no matter how much he saw there was always more to see, and Taliesin intended to see as much as he could! What lay beyond that tree? What beyond the rock beyond the tree? So on and so forth to the edges of the earth he would explore! Tal envisioned himself at the furthest reaches, some place totally different that this one, a place where nobody had even been to! How far was it? How far had the packs gone?
The questions flooded his mind as he looked around, poking his head into every crevice, nook, and cranny. There was always something in a hole, and he loved to look into every one of them. So he continued until he found something truly extraordinary! Gently Taliesin pulled out the shiny sparkle that had caught his attention, it was a circle! He set the ring down and was amazed by the odd trinket, though he wasn't sure what, exactly, it was. He picked it up and realized that he would have to carry it in his mouth if he wanted to keep it, the piece was too small to put one of his toes into, not that it would have comfortable to have a metal band around his toe anyways. With a shrug he picked it back up and started exploring again, completely oblivious to the warnings he had JUST been given, and to the thoughts of danger and bears.
