Sawtooth Spire Paper Hearts

For any/all of the puppies and/or Tonravik!

It was... pleasantly pleasing to know the pups had grown up enough to have a better understanding of their surroundings. He took a considerable amount of pride in their exploration of the outside world and today he planned on widening their world just a little bit more. He bided his time, waiting for a lull or extended period of boredom in their activity before he introduced them to new things.

The sun was high. The pups had eaten, napped, and were starting to rouse. Iqniq nudged each of them in turn, pointing them towards the entrance of the den before he, himself moved outside and waited for all of them to file out. Eyes on the threshold of their home, he yipped eagerly as he coaxed the willing puppies outside.
