A soft smile was given at her comment. He sure hoped he would find a place to call home. After all, the wind had promised him that much if nothing else. Watching her smile he moved closer and brushed her cheek with a paw. “You are still lonely here though. I feel badly for you. I will most certainly be sure to stop by and visit, bringing stories with me. Will that make you happy new friend?”

He felt the pull of the wind suddenly. It was calling for him again. Was this what it wanted him to do. Make a new friend that he would always go back to. See and enjoy, chat with and share stories of his life. Yes. It had to be, and he was happy about that. Pulling himself to his feet he looked Huyana in the eye.

“I must go… but soon enough you will have a passerby all the time. To share stories and time with. Don’t be lonely. I will always be back for you.” With a little bow he watched her for a moment before turning to follow the wind to his next destination, knowing in his heart it would always be back.
