Blackfeather Woods we roam under a sky full of stars

per request,, @Astrid and any other pup that wants to go on an "adventure" (@Keelut, @Abraxas)

The nights became colder with each passing day, forcing her to curl her children closer to her chest though she need not. They were growing big enough to retain their own body heat and growing rapidly, they were. Eventually, the den became cramped for all six of the family and she would shoo them out to the world beyond, just a few feet so that they may not stray to far but not b kept restrainingly within her reach. Yet now, she knew she could not keep them close much longer. She had noticed it in all of them, wandering eyes and eager paws that often roamed too far. Now, it was time to expand their horizons to the beyond, the territory they would conquer in later years. Rising her children from their slumber, she beckoned each one into the chilling air of the early morning, a time they had not met before. 

"Let's go," She called, sniffing the air for any unwanted visitors or imposers upon their journey. When she found none, she waited for her children feets away from the den for them to catch up with her. Their walk would not be long, but it would hopefully give them a sense of where they were in the world, and hopefully, a sense of independence as well.
