Keisha's padded paws stepped carefully across the border into the Garden Grove that was once her home, her pack's utopia. Her orbs surveyed the horizon hesitantly, scanning for any evidence of life; as far as she could tell, there was none. She stood, a mixture of happiness and uncertainty inside her, as she allowed the others to catch up.

Finally, the long voyage to Garden Grove had drawn to a close. Despite his blindness, the wise Ruhinda new this was the fabled territory of Keisha by all his other senses.
The cooling drew that coated the vibrant grass cushioned the pads underneath the old brute's paws. The sound of lively birds singing sweet tunes to the world caused his ears to swivel contently in awe. Perhaps the most rewarding feature of the land was the sweet perfume of endless flowers dancing in his nasal cavity.
There was no amount of words that could do this place justice in description. Even the term utopia was an understatement. The idea that an entire pack disappear without a trace from a territory so rich not only puzzled Ruhinda, but actually chilled him at some level. Perhaps this was a cleverly hidden death trap rather than a true paradise.
For now, Ruhinda's theory would have to remain unanswered. Much of his snowy white body was very wary from travel, especially his joints. He believed that it was best to rest before planning any large investigation on the Garden Grove.
Ruhinda approached Keisha's side. He was pondering what to say to her, as he felt a cloud of heavy hearted sorrow wash over her. It was obvious to him that this place brought back many pleasant memories to her that the young fae may never get back. He finally decided that a proper response to the situation was a simple one: "Your home is beautiful."

"Thanks," she turned to him. "Sure is hot. Even my paws are tired. Amora?" her orbs searched for the other fae. "Oh well I'm sure she'll follow. Want to rest? The grass a few yards from here is soft and tall, perfect."

Amora came running into view, being followed what looked to be a awfully big skunk. "get it away" she hollered laughing and out of breath. "Help me this creature is gonna eat me..." She hollered as she ran into the middle of Keisha and Quillimor.

A fowl odor rampaged the sensitive nasal cavity of Ruhinda. The white furs upon his mane rose, and a snarl appeared on his face at the overwhelming scent. He recalled this rancid smell and the critter who produced them from an unpleasant encounter in the distant past when he first entered the lands of the Cascade Mountains. He was far from eager to experience it again.
Strong sneezes came forth from the elders black nose in a vain attempt to expel the plague from his snout. As he galloped further into the Garden Grove to escape a dreadful plight, he called back in a weasing breath, "That thing won't be eating you; it will be putrefying you! If its liquids be touching you, you'll be reeking of its stench for weeks!"

Without much thought Keisha began running. She looked back at the sneezing Ruhinda hoping he'd run, too. She'd seen skunks before. Relief flooded her mind when he did. "Amora! Where did that come from? Where did you get that!?" As the wolves scattered she could hear Amora's laughter at what somewhat horrified her. She used to mess with skunks if they came near enough as a sort of game, until one had sprayed her face. Since then, she'd left the foul creatures alone.

"ah you guys help me!" amora screemed as she tried to run in circles around the foul beast. "It wasn't my fault I promise, get it away." She said as she went barrleing through the bushes.
A few minutes past and then a curtling screem erupted from the bush Amora had just entered. she came out with the skunk no where in sight and said " I lost!" She sat down and tried to roll the smell off herself to no avail. "gross" she said taking off towards the nearest stream.

Shaking her head in a mixture of pity and giggles. "Oh geez... better follow her," the fae leaped off after amora to see how she was going. The air around the place smelled completely awful, but as long as the skunk didn't take another victim, they could survive..

Amora sat in the bank and watched as fish evaded her horrid smell. "Lucky me!" she said as she hung her head in defiet. Soon she ran about and rolled over and over again to relinquish the smell coating her silky fur. "this blows" she announced as she saw Kiesha approach holding her breath.

Not sure whether to turn and run or try to comfort the squirming Amora, the fae chose the latter, "Yeah... why did it chase you and not us? It can't be your lucky day. Maybe if you try really hard it will come off," then she added with a slight snicker on her maw: "enough for us to breath anyway.."

"Aren't you the funny one." Amora said making a face and she ran and splashed water all over her self. "And I'm the one covered in smelly crap!" She said again as she lopped in a circle and rolled around a bit. She walked alittle bit forward then asked "any better, My nose is so fried I can't breathe anyhow!"

"Kind of ... not really. When those things walk through an area everything stinks. Sorry." Her flag hung by her hocks, held a bit away so it wouldn't touch them. All of the air around Amora was putrified and the fae felt unclean. "Though there was something a wolf tried once... the reeds, or something. They rolled in the plants and some of the stink got masked." Her auds swiveled back slightly. "Might have been herbs. If you find any you might want to try rolling in those, but that's all I can think."

"There be such I masking plant that which you speak of."
The rusty voice and unique speech pattern that sounded could belong to no other wolf than Ruhinda. He had found his way to this location through his sharp hearing rather than his sensitive noise. He felt that employing the sense of smell for this situation would be a foolish decision.
"When I first be coming to this land, I had a rather similar encounter with the fowl smelling vermin" Ruhinda explained from a safe distance, "To try and cleanse meself, I vainly washed my fur in a pond. It be there that I be finding these reeds. They be tall with shaggy tips like a wolf's tail, and they be smelling of musk. If we can be finding this plant again, Amora will be more tolerable."

"Be my guest if you can find some. Where did you see them Ruhinda?" she realized what she'd said, "oh, I'm sorry... where'd you find them?" she said feeling a bit sheepish..

"anything that will help me I'll gladly search til the end of the earth to find."Amora said in agony. "where did you find this mysterious plant?" She said trying her hardest to stand up wind from the others.
