[ His response comes gruff and minimal, but Gray might feel the faint, warm tinge of approval behind it.

At least he's there on time when Gray gets to the World's Edge the following day -- early, even. He'd been too antsy to sleep in and had gotten there pretty early in the morning, opting to look around and scope out the area first.

Shouldn't be too bad, though you gotta watch your footing.
