His nose twitched smelling the air, it seemed so different. Not as pure as his mountain home. He'd thought the journey would be fun and exciting but now he felt home sick. He didn't want to cross the desert again though. He wasn't sure he could make it back across a second time, at least not right now.

Theos got up and walked into the street. He turned more than a few heads but no one approached him. No doubt his rugged sand strewn appearance hinting at him being coin-less. He spotted a fountain at a cross road and hobbles into a run towards it. He looked around but no one seemed to care and he dipped part of his head in. The cool and gentle feel of the water running over his head, cleaned his sand stained clay; revitalizing the coat a bit. Bringing it back up, he laps at the water. It felt refreshing to have it enter his body. He drank until he was full and even then he drank more like he couldn't drink enough. No matter how much he drank he still didn't feel the satisfaction. He had to stop however, his belly feeling ready to burst. He still felt the pangs of hunger but it was dulled by the water in his belly.

"Hey! You there! Stop messing with my fountain!" Theos lifted and turned his head towards the voice.
