Renur was practicing his magic, by stomping his forepaws on the ground like the cheetahs did, and causing little eruptions of stone and dirt to surround a bigger rock. He was pretty good at it, as well as being able to detect fractures or imperfections in stone or lines of ore within rocks. There were plenty of semi-precious stones around the keep, and he wondered if the Zekirans or the dragons had something to do with that.

He loved looking at them, set into their raw rock walls, or if he used a little magic, exposed slightly and glimmering in the half-light of late afternoon as it drifted into the depths of his particular den.

Since he was good at it, he'd devised a way of creating reflective surfaces from the stone that the Keep was carved from. It allowed light to bounce around through the dimmer parts of the dens, and cast a pretty glow through the whole Keep when the sun set. He was proud of that, and frankly he didn't shut up about it for weeks.

He'd never quite gotten rid of the excitable, puppy-like talkativeness that he had as a youngling, but at least there were folks around who enjoyed talking for hours about nothing but dirt and rocks. He was pretty sure that the Warthog Kin out there really did appreciate his efforts, they'd been sending trade parties out to see if he'd be willing to help them mine more easily.

Anything that got the ore from the stone without having to stripmine, like the Humans did, was a good thing.

It was getting to be habit, that Renur would go down to the rocky cliffsides where the warthogs rooted around with pickaxes and shovels. He would clear some of the debris and help them find a good place to dig. After several weeks of this he did announce that he had to take a break.

There was something else, something quite important, he needed to do. For he'd found out that one of the other Wolfkeeps out there was bursting with pups! And, feeling rather self-important, Renur decided to check them out and see if one of them might want to come along home here with him.

So off to Sgiath Wolfkeep he went!

She kept coming back, this one darker grey pup. While Renur was watching, it seemed that she had her eye on him. Eventually he nuzzled the pup, saying, "come along with me, then. I can teach you some things - I sense you have the same kind of abilities I do!"

"Really?" She yipped, "then I'd love to learn! Where are we going? Is it cold there? I don't like the cold much, because it makes the ground hard."

"No," Renur chuckled, "it's rather warm. Up in the peaks where the dragons roost, it gets a bit chilly."

"You have dragons too? I like dragons, but not as much as I like you. My name's Tolaal-Mno'anirre, but you can call me Anirre!"

They headed back to Planet Twenty, and Renur certainly got to work out - both his magic and his mouth. It seemed that Anirre was just as apt to bubble over with important news of the day (be it chasing a pretty bug, or having mastered a new use for her power), and Renur was very willing to listen as much as she.
