The Search For Aspen

[~Destiny~]

_{Desoto followed his team through the village towards the beach. They quickly made their way to the cliffs and stopped at the base. Desoto stood gazing up at the slippery surface. They didn't usually risk traveling up the cliffs. That's why so many light dogs hid there. To them risking their lives was worth it. To Desoto and the guards, it was pointless. They could kill a light dog and then fall off the cliff to their own death! It wasn't worth it. But now it was worth it. They had to find Aspen or face punishment. He took a deep breath and followed his team as they began climbling up the steep cliffside. Desoto stumbled over some loose rock and fought to regain his balance. He peered nervously over the edge, seeing the dark water lapping up against the face of the cliff far, far below him.}
