[During the drafts and the flooding, Moro simply evacuated. As a result, the den she had taken residence in has since become uninhabitable. Any possessions of San remain in the cave, soggy and growing mold; Moro has no interest in material possessions.

She does, however, have an interest in finding a new den. Which, given her size, is not an easy thing to do. Now that she's back and close to the village, those who wander even a short ways into the forest may find Moro pawing at holes to see if she can dig them wider, or even trying to squeeze into larger pits.

She is not making much success, mind.]

[ Ikki looks rather impressed. ] The whole forest? What's she protect it from?

Hi, Moro! [ She raises her voice here, waving with both hands this time. ]

[biteoffherhead]

You are fouling up the river.

[GRR GRR GRR. Such a wonderful first impression she must give, Ikki. Also, what are you doing with a granddaughter.]

You are but a boy yourself.

[savedtheworld]

[He gives a nervous chuckle.] Sorry, I didn't think it was a problem. Don't animals bathe here all the time? This is Appa, by the way! [Appa gives a lazy growl]

Yeah, I haven't had any kids here but she came from the future. Isn't Luceti weird like that?

[breezing]

Maaaaaaaybe not with soap, though. [ Ikki blinked down at the scrub brush she was holding, thinking about it. ] Ummmm, hm. [ WELP. ]

[biteoffherhead]

[Yep, that soap sure is nasty!]

So you survive long enough to breed.

[savedtheworld]

[Aang laughs nervously.]

That's... one way of putting it? She's an Airbender just like me!

[breezing]

[ Wow, Ikki's just...still standing there a little impressed by the fact they're talking to a giant wolf, man. 8|

HER LIFE IS AMAZING. ]

[biteoffherhead]

Is that so? Teach her how to properly respect my forests, and I will permit her passage.

[savedtheworld]

[Part of him feels defensive of his granddaughter, but Aang manages to resist getting mad at a giant wolf. He tries to give a polite bow.]

She's been raised with the same values of me, as an Airbender, to respect all life. So you won't have to worry about that.

[breezing]

[ Although she's a bit more hyperactive, this is true. Ikki only acts in defense. Of her family, of her home. ]

I won't hurt your home. [ A solemn little promise, added to Aang's statement. She knows about homes, and protecting them. ]

[biteoffherhead]

Then I will not eat her.

[Isn't this fun, Ikki?? This meeting is going as good as it could possibly go!]

[savedtheworld]

I... really appreciate that.
