An alpaca and a youngling walked up to a mountain. The journey was treacherous yet the two persisted. As the two climbed the alpaca helped the youngling carrying on its back from time to time. At a certain moment, the alpaca noticed a group of other alpacas grazing near a cliff. The youngling noticed his friend looking at the group but he kept quiet. The alpaca said to the youngling "Come we must continue. We are almost there". The two continued climbing as another alpaca followed with a bit of distance. The youngling noticed the other alpaca and thought it was a bit strange. But he kept climbing with his friend. "I'm getting a bit thirsty" said the alpaca. "I know a place to drink really refreshing water." Said the alpaca that was following them and added "A storm is moving south from this mountain, so we should be able to find a watering hole with plenty of water". The youngling didnt like the idea of leaving the mountain, but his alpaca friend decided to follow his kind to the place of water. This made the youngling sad, but he wanted his alpaca friend to be ok. He waved at the two and smiled at his alpaca friend getting ready to continue alone, but the alpaca friend ran back at him momentarily and said to the youngling before leaving, "If you ever need some refreshments, just seek the friends you have made on your journeys, they will provide." Those words where strange... to be continued?
