Pasos al Cielo Paper Moon

fade w/ yours? <3

Walking was getting tiresome but Orionis did not want his mother to know he was tired. Not yet. He wouldn’t stop until his nubbly legs crumpled beneath him or his paws started bleeding. Or both. He was determined to impress his mother and continue forward to the big lake. There were important wolves he had to meat and a big body of water he had to drink out of; the sooner they got there the better! And if they kept stopping for poor little Orionis they would never get there… and that wasn’t good at all. That would make momma sad and that was the last thing the ebony magpie wanted. Seeing momma sad made him sad. And he didn’t like being sad.

… you can play in the shallows too …

He did not know what that meant but he squealed in excitement regardless. His little body wriggled at his mother’s side as he continued his march forward, his navy blue gaze fixated on the path before them…

They would reach the lake soon and there Inna planned to give her son a nice rest before they completed their journey. It had been a long one for Orionis, his first and she was proud of the way he'd handled it. She being his mother could see that he was tired but he was being a trooper about it. She smiled down at him to encourage him to make it the last leg before they would he finished. With the coyotes close she didn't want to stop until they were much closer to the surge.

If came to it she could always pick him up and run for the border but they didn't seem to be coming closer. This put her at ease, they seemed to he safe for the moment.

The mother couldn't help but laugh at her son's excitement when she mentioned playing in the shallows. She could already see him splashing about in the water. Inna hoped that he would one day grow to love it like she did. The Raven looked ahead to the ground they had to cover, “Not much longer until we rest,” she told her son.
