The thin furred dog female didnt appear to be too happy about slipping into the water. Of course, Saul didnt understand this- the male spent a good portion of his morning in the stream by the house, making sure he was clean before he started the day. He'd even braved the Nova Scotian winters and bathed then, although that had been a very rushed affair with much teeth chattering. The grimace on the pink-eyed lady's face was just a little comical and Saul gave a soft, good natured snort. She was a nice woman, even if a little blunt when he'd first met her. But it was clear the reason for her bluntness then- she was just about ready to drop. And he meant literally, as it seemed she had dropped on Dahlia soil. It didnt both him, but he wasnt sure if Nayru was aware the small family were even here, let alone that a litter of puppies had been born on her soil. Cinnamon backed ears perked as her accent came through.


"Summer's good- although we do seem to get a lot of summer storms. And snow? Its a nuisance for sure... the blizzard did a lot of damage in Dahlia."


He thought of the Victorian house, smashed down the front by the tall tree that had once stood so proud outside. He thought of Saluce, his shop burnt to the ground and without his memory. He suffered from seizures now because of it, and Saul wasnt sure what to do for him. He thought of Conor, gone so quickly after the distruction. He thought of Bris and Eclipse, perhaps they had followed him. But whatever had happened, there was always a good side to the coin that had dealt them such bad luck. There was always a phoenix that arose from the ashes of destruction. She tried to rid her fur of the excess water, although the afternoon heat was sure to dry her. She spoke again and Saul smiled.



"I can imagine- you looked just about ready to pop. I hope you found a house that wasnt so damaged by the storm. We're working to fix them up, but we cant do all of them."


He explained, thinking on the amount of work they had to do this summer. It was so much, but the agouti male was more than happy to do it. His cinnamon ears pinned back as she gave a laugh and another stream of words came forward. He nodded immediately before speaking.


"Yeah, I'm doing alright. Trying to figure out the foundations for the stables I plan to build. And yeah, you'd had a long journey though and you needed to rest."


He answered, running a hand through thickly mopped brunette hair. His hair was never sure what was going and it never really had a defined style. It was just a pile of difficult hair that had no use to him.
