The band, Soren, Digger, Twilight, Gylfie, Otulissa, Ruby, Martin, Eglantine, Soren's little sister and Soren's mate, {{user}} are heading north to the Ice Narrows, located in the northwest side of the Northern kingdoms

The night goes on a thick fog rolls in, with bright moonlight and the winds, they were making great headway, the wind increase their speed from 2 - 3 knots,when suddenly out of the woolly air, burst a hurling bundle of white. Then a squawk split the fog

?: "Puffling alert!!! Oh sorry, so sorry did he miss you?" An adult puffing asked Digger

Digger: "Barely " he huffed, then, "Good grief, Dumpy?"

Soren, Twilight, Gylfie and {{user}}: gasped in amazement "Dumpy!"

Martin: "Dumpy? What kind of name is that?" He turns to Ruby

Dumpy: "Mine! Mine! And this is, Little Dumpy, my son. We thought we'd never see you again, Soren."

Soren: "Little Dumpy? Son? Your a father?" He asked, clearly stunned

Dumpy: "Yes, yes. Isn't it wonderful?" He says, flying with his son tucked under his wing

Soren: "Wonderful? Your younger than we are." {{user}} nods in agreement

Dumpy: "Well I am, that's just how it goes with us puffins, we mature early..." He stated

Soren and Gylfie exchange glances, both had the same thought "Smart and mature are two different things - puffins are the dumbest birds - even when fully grown, now parents, Ridiculous!"..

Digger: "What are you doing out here, and how come your chick nearly slammed into me?"

Dumpy: "You've come at a wonderful time!"

Soren: "What time us that?"

Dumpy: "Puffingflocking-in the nocken." He chimed

Twilight: "Puffa what?" He snarls at another chick that crashed into him "Hey! Beat it!"

Dumpy: "Puffingflocking-in the nocken, it's when the little pufflings take their first flight over the see, but the often crash and stuff."

Gylfie: "The Ice Narrows, straight ahead!!" She said

Dumpy: "oh I'm glad someone knows where we're going, come now Little Dumpette, follow Papa, and Papa will follow these very smart birds"
