The world of plants was quite interesting to Renier, knowing they actually had a purpose. It kept him entertained that was for certain, and though Aniu was a quiet wolf, he liked that about her. What was that? Ears perked, and nose to the sky he listened to the call. It was his mother, but what did she want? The excitement between his pupsitter, and brother were tangible. She had said all wolves, and Aniu seemed intent to take them. He eagerly rushed her along with Ryvet's help.


A place he had not set eye upon they crossed, trotting quickly through the wind clipped snow banks with what felt like a million scents teasing his nose. There tale of many a rodent, and some of dead plants that made his stomach ache. Then, something that would catch any hunger wolf's attention. What was it? A warning touch, he paused. What? He would want to ask, but kept his muzzle still. Aniu was telling them something, and he stuck by Ryvet trying his best to be silent. They continued, and he spotted his mother on the crest of a hill. Faint question he drew in line, giving Ryvet a warning to follow with a rise of his lip. He would respectfully brush his nose to his mother's throat, feeling he would soon pass her in height. Something he quite thoroughly enjoyed to think about. He was about to question what they were doing, but once again the scent brushed his nose. Turning his head he would see the herd of caribou, and it dawned on him. Something to eat. He was more than ready to play this game.

They would come. Aniu the first, with her sons. Something that amused the leader, and pleased her. The small, silver lady was good at helping them stay busy, learning important things while striking their interest. Jaysyek offered a knowing smile, feeling their happiness and eagerness. She was as well. It was time.


Silently she would greet the three with her own tail moving behind her, finding they would soon have their answers. Sibyl, a wolf she grew fonder of every day by her loyalty and kindness would fall about the four with the same feelings. Jayse accepted her gesture, with a bob of her head, and continuing tail movement. Kade next, she tipped her muzzle to the silver streaked Guardian, meeting his gaze that spoke of readiness. Borden was not here, she was grateful to have him at her side. The same could be said for Valiant, he meandered his way, if knowing the things he should have done. It didn't matter to Jayse he was here, and she had missed the rogue. Something she hoped was conveyed in her smile she gave him. Her daughter Taima was next in line, and Jayse could only wonder what kept her. She would not ask, but watch her greet her elders respectfully. Maybe, they really were grown up after all.


Face relaxed she eyed their prey once more, wishing to see her youngest daughter, and eldest. It was time to act, and she would place her mind to worry on those gathered, and for a successful hunt.Eight wolves, three of them beginners in every way, she needed to decide the best way for them to walk away with full stomachs. Calculations of the different sizes, and strengths she had to place her pups first.


"Taima, you will go with Sibyl, Aniu, and Shadowstorm. The four of you will have to make a choice, and separate it from the rest." Her voice was no nonsense, looking longest to her daughter. Muzzle would point to the stretch of ground beneath them. "See where the brush is thickest, you'll need to push the target there. Valiant and Kade if you two want to get in position, I'll let Aniu send off the starting call when she's picked a caribou. Renier,Ryvet, and I will be somewhere in the middle to make sure the target has little room for escape." Waiting for questions,she looked around to each member. She felt no need to tell her children how important it was to listen, and be safe. They surely should know by now, and realize how serious this was.
