The day was fine for most but a little hot for the Alaskan tundra blood that flowed through Jaden’s veins. His fur wasn’t yet growing thicker for the long winter months that loomed further ahead in the year but it was still enough to have him panting as he crossed the relatively treeless hills that lead to Fort Cumberland. Once he found it and proceeded forward into the decaying buildings and stone structures he was cooled. But he felt it a good idea to stay a few hours longer than he’d planned, maybe wait out the hottest part of the day.

He thought it would be easy enough to do so. The looming stone walls were something that he’d never seen before. Unlike the rotting structures of the city this one seemed more natural. He could identify that the walls were made of stone and the steps within that he found were also cold and natural material. There were no bright colors that pealed from the walls or metal with images on it. Here and there he would find a glass window often long broken but they were few and far between. A place such as this was surely to have some useful scrap or supplies hidden within. He looked and searched and turned over rotting wooden boxes for hours.

Nothing, Nothing, and more nothing. It was a little disappointing to have made this trip in hopes of finding something valuable or useful in the odd structure only to find broken and rotting things. But the day wasn’t a total loss. He knew his way around pretty well combing through the interior of the stone barracks and returned after his fruitless searches to the tallest point of the tallest tower. It wasn’t extremely high up but farther than the Issum was used to being at about three stories. It would be a fine place for archery, he thought to himself as he looked out on the other ruined buildings and surrounding territory. But he didn’t move to draw his bow instead choosing to simply enjoy the view.



Jaden does. Jaden speaks. Jaden thinks.
