**You're not crazy if you remember a different story. I rewrote it because it wasn't was I envisioned for the character lol

A call to adventure.
Eirik’s morning started like any other regular day for him. Stuck in the same rut. Laying in bed with his phone lighting up his dark room, Eirik scrolled through his socials before getting up. The calm before the storm. All his friends and people he knew in high school going off living their lives and posting about it. His eyes started to glaze over as he kept seeing seemingly the same post again and again, but posted by different people. Family, Travel, Career. And what am I doing? He got tired of it and refreshed hoping for something different. And he certainly got what he wanted.

Everyone was reposting and tagging their friends, it was all he could see for miles. The Faction leaders had put out a call for anyone to come with them to go exploring throughout the country of Tokotna. You just had to register for a passport at the TMV (Tokotna Motor Vehicle). And for the cherry, they were taking off in Eirik’s city, Tyonek. Eirik of course got flooded with messages and tags. “You should do it!” “God, I wish I lived closer!” “Eirik this was made for you!”

Getting a bit overwhelmed Eirik put his phone down and started to get ready for the morning. As he walked out of his bedroom his foot brushed up again Howl. Great. Eirik had just enough time for a deep breath before the wailing began. Howl was his few month dire he had raised since he was a puppy. He was only half his full size so Eirik still kept him in the house, but Howl was still too big not to bump into. Which wouldn’t be a big deal, if not for the constant howling and wailing at the slight inconvenience. Howl liked to whine, a lot. And the morning was his favorite time for it.

Eirik made his usual breakfast with his mind clouded. His favorite cereal as he had every morning. Howl slumped into the kitchen and flopped down at Eirik’s feet by the table and howl-complained to him. At least listening to Howl’s morning gripes kept his mind slightly off of the faction leader’s post. How would I even do that. He had a job he had to get to. He couldn’t just put everything down to go adventuring. He could save going off and traveling for when he was more settled. It just wasn’t the right time for making major life changes. It was a bit much.

Eirik’s phone rang loudly making him jump, and distracting Howl enough for him to stay quiet. It was his boss. Eirik’s head snapped to the clock on the stove, he wasn’t late though. He picked up.

“Eirik!”
“Good morning Sir”
“Did you see the news about the faction leaders?”
“How could I not-”
“Great! We want you to go with them! For work! And bring that Dire of yours- the faction leaders all have tokotas!”
“Sir-“
“It’ll be great just write an article once a week and interview all of them. I’ll email you the details- just keep track of your expenses! I look forward to your article at the end of the week!”
click.
Well. Eirik looked over at Howl who stared back. “Looks like we have to go now” Howl flopped his head down continued his morning wailing.

Eirik packed what he needed into a duffel and made his way over with Howl to the TMV and a sense of dread washed over him as it came into view. The line was already outside of the door. The wait was certainly going to be longer than he expected.

Eirik didn’t talk much in line, he didn’t want to draw any attention to himself and his lack of interest in going. It’s not like I would have never have wanted to go but-, he found himself going back and forth in his head. He didn’t really want to ruin any of the other people in line’s moods with his lack of enthusiasm. Howl however spoke enough for the both of him. About 10 minutes in Howl decided he had enough and began one of his tantrums on the ground. Whenever the line shifted and Eirik moved up, Howl would silently pick himself up just to flop back down and resume the wailing.

Finally, after what felt like 3 hours, Eirik was called and his passport was processed. His picture didn’t come out the best, the old man taking it had waited a bit long in hitting the flash so his smile had gotten tired. But Howl’s didn’t come out any better- he was still full swing through his tantrum. It didn’t matter though, no one would see it.

Looking at the post, Eirik needed to just go wait by the S.S. Awoo for the faction leaders and everyone to gather. Easy enough right?
