Americans have to bring back direwolf… shameful… all glorious Salotian wildlife still lives and prospers.
A aum sits down on the steps of his apartment to take a smoke break away from his family. He looks across the street at a pair of teenage boys making a ruckus and scratches his neck in annoyance. He’s told them off a hundred times before in his mind, but they’re asking for another telling off…

In the meantime, have a nepama. 🐪
