There was still lingering bewilderment at their sibling's lesser size given they were from the same litter but strange things happened in this new world all the time. Who knows, perhaps some strange phenomena happened to their siblings during the flood. "I think you're right," Larkspur agreed, letting the months shuffle through their head.

Muddy River
A wide ravine where a shallow, gentle river flows. Years of drought and silt deposits have built this area into a fertile delta. The river remains low and dry most of the year, staining its waters brown and creating muddy shores.
