Despite Raven's preface that she hadn't yet officially earned the title of medic, Elwood thought she hit the nail on the head when speaking of Eljay. The deterioration of his mental state was no secret to anyone in the pack, but it pained him a little to realize how quickly Raven had been able to make her assessment. Elwood gnawed on the inside of his lip for a moment, nodding thoughtfully.

"I've been trying to do the same -- keeping his mind off of things," he said. "But it's like he just can't focus on anything else." He opened his mouth to continue, but the arrival of Lagan stilled his tongue. The youth bounded onto the scene, tail wagging and eyes bright. Elwood couldn't help but smile. "Raven, this is Lagan," he said, then added for Lagan's benefit, "She's Whip and Gannet's sister. Your cousin."

Eagerly, the boy approached Raven and gave her a thorough sniffing, which caused Elwood to chuckle.
