[color=00a651][center][h3]Agar[/h3][/center] [center][h3]// time to fuck around and find out >> heading home //[/h3][/center][/color] Agar watched the beast closely, with a steady breath and firm grip on his spear. The silence of the forest around them was deafening, the only sounds being his racing heartbeat and the low grumble from the wolf. His instincts were screaming at him to run yet he held his ground against his bestial instincts. This was an opportunity not only to feel alive but a chance to continue to forge his own path in this world. He watched the beast closely and carefully as it approached his offering, it was being just as cautious as he was. In an instant it devoured the harpy meat then back off back into the brush. It was then that Agar realized what was happening to the creature. Why it was having such a hard time in its environment, “[color=39b54a]you’re an ambush predator, you’re not eating because your birth mark gives you away.[/color]” He spoke softly out loud to himself. He pondered for a moment the issues that would bring the beast and came to the conclusion he had just made, an outcast similar to what he was in this orc tribe. This was a creature he wished to befriend even if it would take him a while to do so. “[color=39b54a]One day we will be friends, I am Agar, and I will call you…[/color]” hmm right it needed a name, but which one? His wife was always better at naming things than him. “[color=39b54a]You will share the name with my first dog, a mastiff about the same size as you… Exodus.[/color]” He didn’t know why he was speaking out loud, but it felt right. “[color=39b54a]I will find you again.[/color]” was the last thing he spoke as he whistled again a quick high-pitched note to a low one. Then slowly without turning his back to the beast, walked back into the forest. It was getting dark, and he still had mushrooms to find and get back to camp. It was going to be a cold night with nowhere to sleep. Maybe he could sleep next to one of the fires or something. He looked back towards the clearing once more then proceeded back into the forest.
