Iknika's ears twitch.
"It did take a while. But a lot of those caves were here already. We just had to link them together. You'd have to ask a miner. They use some alchemy to make digging a lot faster than what topsiders do."
As they walk, the crowds thin out. This tunnel leads to the upper parts of the colony, near the surface and high above the ground level. The air gets a little colder, and a distant howl is heard.My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies. Sigatars by Ashen Lilies, Gullara and Purple Eagle.

Iknika chuckles and tries to slide an arm over Claire's waist confidently and squeeze, before stepping back.
"Well, fear not. Those wolves won't get you while I'm here," she boasts.My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies. Sigatars by Ashen Lilies, Gullara and Purple Eagle.

Re: Home 23
[Underside]
Iknika grins, and leads the way further up the tunnel. The cold breeze becomes more noticeable as they climb, until they finally reach its source.
The tunnel ends in a wide, long gallery, opening to a dimly-lit cavern. This time, the light comes from the sun, not anything artificial. The cave has multiple large openings in it, leading towards the surface. Below the gallery, on the cave floor, are the wolf pens. The floor is covered in dirt and plants, and loosely divided into smaller areas with a set of fences.
Wolves mill about among them - male and female, adult and young. It's summer, so the winter's pups have grown up and are walking around on their own. The animals seem to have a surprising leeway in where they go, some even walking outside of the cave. Goblins in thick leather suits with masks are patrolling the pens, though, and observing it from higher ground. The wolves seem to ignore those that walk among them.My FFRP characters.

"Riding is their main purpose. They're much handier in caves and mountains than a horse," Iknika says, peering down at the wolves below. "We can get down there and take a closer look. It's summer, so the pups have grown. Their parents growl at anyone who's not their handler when the cubs are still little."My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies.

Re: Home 23
[Underside]
Iknika smiles a little. She gets why Claire is unsure around the wolves, but it's still a bit funny.
"Sure. And there's always handlers around. Let's go."
She leads the way to a small elevator, that takes them to the floor of the cavern. The smell is much stronger here, and a few wolves actually stop to glance at them. They're still a fair distance from the fence, though. Two wolf handlers peer at the girls suspiciously, but don't say anything yet.My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies.

Re: Home 23

Iknika stops a little ways from the fence. It offers a good view of the pens. A young wolf with dark grey coat sits down and peers at them curiously, tongue lolling out. Her ears dip slightly, as she's about to tell something uncool.
"Uh, no. It's not something they let kids do. Wolves are still wolves, so a rider needs to be really confident they can direct it."My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies. Sigatars by Ashen Lilies, Gullara and Purple Eagle.

"Don't I ever. Four brothers, and more cousins I can keep track of," Iknika says with an exaggerated sigh. "I was surprised that topsiders don't have that many family members. Sounds like you do, though. How many?"My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies. Sigatars by Ashen Lilies, Gullara and Purple Eagle.

Iknika's ears perk up in surprise.

"Well kinda. We have a really big house, and these days most of my siblings already moved out. Now my sister's house..." Claire giggles. "That place is a madhouse. I've babysat for her before. Let's just say I'm happy that the oldest two are getting to an age that you can rely on them."

Re: Home 23

Iknika's ears twitch, and she grins toothily.
"I don't know. Kids that are usually the worst. They start getting ideas. Like my cousins. At least they no longer play this game where they bite each other to see who can keep quiet for longer."
Meanwhile, a young wolf is bolder than the rest, and gets close to the fence. Claire smells weir and he wants to smell her.My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies. Sigatars by Ashen Lilies, Gullara and Purple Eagle.

"They did! It's called rakachak. They do it to prove they're tough," Iknika says, then looks around. The handlers are distracted by two adult male wolves going into a growling, heckles-raising dominance contest, which is how the little wolf got so close. "They're looking the other way. We can get close, if we're quick."My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies. Sigatars by Ashen Lilies, Gullara and Purple Eagle.

[154 Oceanside Drive]
In clear violation of the instructions, someone shows up at Felandria's house directly, to see it for themselves.
Or, not see, exactly, because she(?) is wearing a pair of those dark glasses that photosensitive mostly-blind people wear, and carrying a cane that skips and sweeps across the ground in front of them. So it seems likely that however splendid the outside of Felandria's house may be, it's not making an impression. Besides that, the visitor bears a satchel over one shoulder, a pair of fox ears and tail, furred black, and is dressed in baggy shapeless clothes that seem designed to hide where exactly the person underneath them is.
Knock-knock-knock.

Re: Home 23

The two girls make their way up to the fence, where the wolf pup is sitting. She seems to be paying more attention to Claire, since her scent is unfamiliar. She remains wary, though. A domesticated wolf is still a wolf.My FFRP characters. Avatar by Ashen Lilies. Sigatars by Ashen Lilies, Gullara and Purple Eagle.

[154 Oceanside Drive]
Is a Felandria-sized wine glass scaled up to Fel, holding about 2 liters...or the same size as Fel, holding about a thousand gallons?
The newcomer doesn't look up at Felandria, but her ears flick over at the sound of her voice.
"That's right. My current lease is up at the end of the summer, so we're looking around. And when heard the Felandria had put up an advertisement, I had to come."

Re: [154 Oceanside Drive]
(The former, she saves the latter for special occasions :) )
Oh man, did she just say the before Felandria?
That's always good for the old ego
Felandria swoons ever so slightly on the inside as she opens the door wider and steps aside.
You do flatter so.
Please come in, make yourself comfortable, would you care for refreshment?
