His morning had been a lot more eventful than he would have hoped. In the ideal world the morning would have been quiet and he would have done his rounds, informed his pack mates of his departure and have been off by sun high. However Sophia has shown up unexpectedly and completely surprised him by asking to stay in Casa with the family. It was great news and it pleased the Sole deeply but he wished he could have been around for her first few days. Not to mention the new warrior Thaddeus. It was never Jazper’s ideal to leave the pack lands the first week anyone settled in but he dare not push his luck and hang around knowing that Skye was due any day. Finally after getting the two new wolves settled in he was able to begin his journey.
Vito naturally protested against the cart, but Jazper grumbled back at him and soon enough they were making good time across ethereal eclipse. They passed through the thick forests, the cart bumping along the thin dirt pathways, the cart flattening plan life growing on either side. He pushed Vito to travel briskly, only stopping for a quick rest half way to allow Vito to relax before pressing on. By the time the Artisan boarder grew strong the sun was beginning to stoop lower and it was clear that it would be night soon enough. Knowing that Taliesin acted as the healer and was near the top of the ranks he called to his brother, knowing that Skye would not be able to greet him and trusting that Tal was probably aware of the situation. Standing up and stepping to the ground he took to the black and white stallions side, brushing a large hand against his neck in a gesture of thanks.
