Sawtooth Spire Thou Shalt be Badass

Sorry for the wait!
@Malrok is still welcome to join at any point!

Soon enough, the little furballs that inhabited the den started showing signs of life. Aariak allowed the red one to crawl over him, but placed a huge paw on his way as he finally reached the other side. But he did not seem to have any intentions of venturing any further. He sat and pouted, clearly upset about his parents' absence. Then once again, another one of the pups climbed over him, and Aariak watched as the little brown monster got to his brother and bumped his nose with a small paw as if trying to cheer him up.

"Mom and dad will be back," promised Aariak in his native tongue, sure that the pups were used to it. He didn't know how long it would take for them to do so, but Aariak had no doubt that Iqniq and Tonravik would come back to their children no matter what.

Meanwhile, not worried about them, Aariak ignored the other pups, who seemed to have less interest in both the world outside and himself, who would be a figure they'd get used to seeing often.
