"Ya, something weirder happened." Ulfric said as he nodded his head at the grenwalds around the town.

"Heh, yeah. I'm guessing you never expected this, did you?" He laughed.
-
"No! Not at all, actually!" Ulfric exclaimed as he looked around. He turned to Can, a grin on us face. "It's surprising what an outsiders perspective can do for everyone."
-
"I try my best to help where I can." Cannon shrugged, grinning. "How is everyone?"
-
"Settling in, mostly. There is some bad blood still but both Halt and I have decided that having our clans in the others camp could lead to improvements." Ulfric explained. "It'll take time...but things should improve. Likely."
-
"Glad to hear that. Youbdid the right thing, Ulfric."
-
"Yes...well, as of now that is." He said. "Now...I have to ask, how long are you saying Cannon? You are welcome to stay as long as you like."
-
"As much as I'd love to stay for a while, I have my own clan to get back to. My daughter hasn't heard from me since I arrived here, and probably misses me." He replied, smiling at the thought.
-
"Ah, yes. Then with that, I will have Yuri get you your supplies for your venture out of the forest." Ulfric said as he looked around. He spotted a cloaked figure who seemed to be sitting by a bush. "Hey! Yuri!" Ulfric called out. "Get Cannon's things then meet us at the entrance!" Yuri immediately took off from where he stood, and entered one of the nearby buildings. Ulfric chuckled as he looked at the sight.
-
"I think I may come back here some time, maybe bring my daughter. It's a beautiful forest and would make for one heck of a vaccation." Cannon commented.
-
"Yes! Absolutely! We would love to have you back Cannon!" "YA!" Bella said. Ulfric chuckled as he lead the mando and Bella towards the front gate, where Yuri swiftly ran out to meet them. He had a black bag with two string straps that attached to it, as well as a small package under his arm. "Heading out then, Can?" Yuri asked Cannon.
-
"Yeah. But I'll be back." He replied, grinning widely now.
-
"Oh! That's good to hear! Hopefully we'll be here at the same time then." Yuri told Can. "What do you mean, Yuri?" Ulfric asked. "Going somewhere?" "Well uh...ya. Actually. Was gunna talk to you about that. Since the war is over and all, I was hoping that I could leave the forest for a bit. See the world past the woods, that sort of thing. Is...that alright?" "Yuri, of course it's alright." Ulfric told Yuri. "In fact, that's a pretty good idea..."
-
"If you end up anywhere near the desert, try stopping by my clan village. It's in the south end of the canyon, I'd be happy to host you."
-
"What in the world is a desert?" Yuri asked Can with genuine curiosity. "You'll find out soon enough, Yuri!" Ulfric told him. "But, with that, its about time we said our farewells."
-
Cannon smiled, glancing at his friends as he took his bag from Yuri. He hadn't been able to call someone a friend in a while. "It's been nice getting to know all of you." He told them.
-
"And it has been my pleasure to host you, Cannon." Ulfric said as he offered his hand to Cannon. "You are a true friend, without you...I'm not sure what would have happened to us."
-
Cannon shook his hand firmly. "It was my pleasure, Ulfric. I'm glad I could help."
-
Ulfric nodded as he released Can's hand. Yuri came up and offered his hand now. "Don't think I could have found out about Diana's plot or act on it without you Can. For that, you have my thanks."
-
He shook his hand as well. "Just doing my job. Thank you for your help."
-
Yuri released Cannons hand, but then held a box out in front of them. "And, here. This is from the Tokage clan, for everything you have done for us."
-
Cannon took the box. "Thanks, should I open it now?" He asked, smiling.
-
"YES!" Bella let out. "Uh. I mean. If you want...."
-
He laughed slightly, and started to open the box. "Well, I guess if you're that excited, I probably aught to open it now."
-
As he opened the lid, he found a dark Black piece of fabric. As he looked more closely, he realized that it was a cowl. It had a golden trim around the front, and as he touched it, it was soft and smooth to the touch and his hand couldn't help but love the feeling of it on his skin.
-
His smile widened. "This is amazing, thank you." He ran his fingers across it. "It matches my armor color scheme as well."
