The Sunspire The Reclusive Wolf pt. 2

Story continued from here

After drinking his fill, Kisu walked until the trees began to disperse. The sun was rising, with a mixture of goldenrod and bright rose colors, spreading into violet through the clouds. He took a path that wound around the backside of a fierce mountain.

He came upon a small creek and drank for a moment. Keeping his head hung low and stepping through the cool stream of water, he realized he was feeling weak. He had caught a couple of rabbits, but they were not sufficient in keeping him full; he would have to catch a bigger meal soon, or he wouldn't have energy for capturing anything, even hares.

It doesn't help that I haven't slept in days.., he thought to himself. He sighed and found a small crest with a cove to sleep under. He would be protected from attacks on three sides this way. After looking around with his eyes for a moment, he sighed again and lay his head on his paws.
