- Early evening, Partly Cloudy 63° F/17° C
The day had been almost warm, leaving the evening pleasingly temperate. As the sun slowly sank, coloring the thicket golden and orange, a small shewolf made her way back through the forest, her bright fur matching the sun in its radiant orange. She had spend the day like she usually did, patrolling the borders, straying a little off the land here and there, picking up herbs and checking for signs of strangers. Of the first, she had gathered a nice bundle, of the second she had seen no trace; So all in all a good day! She had just dropped of her loot in one of her own stores, and now she was excited to get home to the den and spend some time with Coal. On the way though, she was gonna stop by the communal den - she had made this a habit ever since the pups were borne - to check in on @Nina and the young ones quickly, and make sure all was well. Coal and her own den was close to the main den-site, so it wasn't a big detour, and though she was tired, she liked to keep taps on both her alphess and the new pups, it was part of her responsibilities now, and she enjoyed them. Stepping into the clearing, she wondered if the children would be awake, they were still young, but they had started to interact more with the other pack wolves, and she would like to spend some more time with them, whenever they and their mother were ready. "Anybody home?" She called lowly, in her usual greeting, stepping slowly towards the den. She knew better than to go in there, she hadn't been since the puppies came into the world - Nina had given birth before and had her own healing knowledge, so she hadn't needed Aideen's help - she kept a few steps away from the opening, waiting for a response; If they're already asleep, I don't wanna wake them...
