Nice and settled. So why are we leaving again?

So, dear friends, the S.H. comes to me last week and says “Clive, you know, it is almost time to leave again”. “What?!” says I, “Why are you leaving this wonderful place. And where are we going next?”. Then it says “You don't have to come with me if you don't want to, Clive”. And THAT comment stunned me. After all, it knows that i have promised my dear mother to look after it, and how can i do so if i don't go with it?

Stupid, Stupid Human.

And so it seems that I will leaving soon and my time here apparently runs short, so i suppose i should update you on what I have been doing. I have been clambering over more rocks than is possibly good for an Elk's delicate hooves, but the scenery has always been stunning.

And there are waterfalls everywhere.

There are also fortifications everywhere.

And the sea is just so pretty. I am so happy that the S.H. is letting me explore alone!

I even found some long forgotten secret passages in the mountains.

...Though there is a long story behind my short term incarceration that perhaps we won't go into that here. Suffice to say that it – *IT* – dropped me in it badly. Damned Stupid Human.

And as to their excuse for a lighthouse...

It truly is a stunning place, and I have to say that I am happy to have come.

But the S.H. still won't tell me where we are going next. Any idea, dear friends?
