Mount Apikuni young & sick

[size=medium]Sky sighed, knowing well this same feeling that Bones was going through now. Not knowing quite what sort of advice to give, she decided to tell her a story of her own.

"I used to live in a different pack from the one I live in now, far away from here. I grew up there, from birth to about three months ago. I had many good relationships with my old pack members, and I was, for the most part, happy."

Sky gazed up at the blue expanse above her, the one she was named for. "During the winter, my family members either died or slowly, one by one, left the pack, until there were not enough of us to keep it going. Last winter was… difficult. We lost many pups and elderly, and knew that we would not survive if we stayed together. There were too many of us to feed. So we split up, and I haven't seen my family since. I do not know if any of them are even still alive, for they do not live in the Teekon Wilds."

Her gaze alighted upon Bones once more. "I cannot tell you whether to stay or to go. What I can say is this: My new pack is as close to family as I have left, but if there was a way for me to return to my old life, I would do so in a heartbeat. You may feel differently than I do, and that is okay. It is not my decision to make. But I would tread lightly, no matter what choice you decide."[/size]
