Since the beginning of the season the dark Agouti man had been spending a lot of time in the borders. He knew the rules and wanted to stay out of trouble. With a pack full of family members he did often feel a little out of place. For the most part though they seemed to have accepted him into the fold. Still he didn't want to do something that could cause anyone's fur to get ruffled.

It was early and the weather had warmed slightly,enough to give hope that the snow would soon be gone and they would be into the warmer months. Frankly he couldn't wait for that and the return of the prey though he'd been doing some serious thinking as of late, about his brother. He remembered what Morganna had said about him being close by.

Tikhon thought he might speak to Morganna about taking a trip to Willow Ridge and seeing if his brother was still there. For the time being he rose to his paws and returned to his patrol and border marking. It was best to stay away from the temptation of the females of the scowl.
